An average specimen weighs 692 g (Feder and Jewett 1978), but specimens up to 1,362 g and 70 cm in diameter have been collected (Feder, unpublished observation). A third dominant sea-star species, Leptasterias polaris acervata, was most commonly found in the 180' 175° 170° 165° 160° 155". Figure 65-32.
