Luzon starfish (Echinaster luzonicus). Starfish, also known as sea stars, are a type of marine invertebrate known as an echinoderm. This one has the typical radial symmetry, with five arms branching off a central region, under which is the mouth. A starfish uses its tube-like feet on its underside to move across the seabed. Starfish can be predators, plant-eaters or scavengers. Photographed off Rinca, Indonesia.
