Asterinidae

**Asterinidae** adalah famili besar bintang laut dalam ordo Valvatida.

## Deskripsi dan ciri
Anggota famili ini umumnya berupa bintang laut kecil, terpipih secara dorsal dan memiliki lengan-lengan yang pendek, umumnya menyebabkan mereka berbentuk segi lima di tubuhnya (contohnya *Asterians rubens*, kecuali kasus-kasus dimana bintang lautnya terlahir dengan lebih dari lima lengan). Tepian tubuhnya tipis dan dibentuk oleh lempeng-lempeng marginal kecil. Mereka dicirikan dengan bagian depan aboral yang dibentuk dari lempeng-lempeng berbentuk mirip bulan sabit, membuat kulit mereka tampak seperti dirajut.

Spesies-spesies laut dalam dapat tumbuh lebih besar, seperti pada genus *[[Anseropoda]]*, yang dapat tumbuh hingga diameter lebih dari 45&nbsp;cm.

## Spesies
Famili ini mencakup sekitar 21 genera dan 116 spesies menurut O'Loughlin & Waters (2004), sementara World Asteroidea Database mengakui 150 spesies dalam 25 genera.
