Descriptio
Asteroidea aspectu stellae similia sunt, itaque his duobus nominibus appellantur. Sunt circa 1800 species vivae, quae in omnibus orbis terrarum oceanis inveniuntur, inter quos oceani Atlanticus, Pacificus, Indicus, et regiones oceanorum Arctici et Australis (h.e., ante Antarcticam). Asteroidea fiunt trans latam profunditatis varietatem, a zona inter aestus ad zonam abyssalem (plus 6000 m).

Asteroidea sunt inter familiarissima animalium marinorum, quibus sunt aliquae proprietates late notae, inter quas regeneratio atque Mytilidae comesae. Eis sunt permultae corporis formae et rationes edendi. Gradus quo Asteroidea se regenerare possunt specie variatur. Sensu lato, asteroidea commoditatis gratia vescuntur, et nonnullis speciebus sunt peculiares vescendi mores, inter quos pascendum suspendendi (Anglice suspension feeding) et praedatio praedae propriae.

Asteroidea nonnullas personas graves in oecologia et biologia agunt. Pisaster ochraceus et species similes ut exemplum notionis species clavis in oecologia late cognitae sunt. Acanthaster planci tropicus est edax curalii praedator per regionem Indo-Pacificam. Alia asteroidea, sicut genera Asterinidarum, saepe in biologia evolutionis adhibentur.
