I have a question is it normal for a starfish to have "just" 4 arms ?
Hello, just had a question few days ago i found a starfish that only had 4 arms wich i never saw before, i checked and there's some species that do have 4 arms (just on specie actually i think). I think the starfish i found is a Asterias rubens (correct me if i'm wrong) wich isn't suppose to have just 4 arms doesn't look like an injury more something "natural" i guess.
- Wanted the confirmation for the specie
- is it common malformation or something ?
Found on the west french coast (Pornic)
Thanks :)
