Description
The mottled star is a beautiful and extremely variable starfish. It comes in a wide range of colors, from orange, pink, and dark blue to brown and purple-brown. It forms a symbiotic relationship with the scale worms of the Arctonoe genus - these worms, particularly Arctonoe fragilis, can be found living on the mottled star's surface.
