Abatus cordatus

Abatus cordatus is a species of sea urchin in the family Schizasteridae.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Abatus cordatus

Anatomical terms of location

Standard anatomical terms of location are used to unambiguously describe the anatomy of animals, including humans.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Anatomical terms of location

Bryozoa

Bryozoa (also known as the Polyzoa, Ectoprocta or commonly as moss animals) are a phylum of simple, aquatic invertebrate animals, nearly all living in sedentary colonies.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Bryozoa

Cassidulus caribaearum

Cassidulus caribaearum is a species of sea urchins of the family Cassidulidae.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Cassidulus caribaearum

Chatham Rise

The Chatham Rise is an area of ocean floor to the east of New Zealand, forming part of the Zealandia continent.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Chatham Rise

Cilium

The cilium (cilia;; in anatomy, cilium is an eyelash) is a membrane-bound organelle found on most types of eukaryotic cell.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Cilium

Continental shelf

A continental shelf is a portion of a continent that is submerged under an area of relatively shallow water, known as a shelf sea.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Continental shelf

Cook Strait

Cook Strait (Te Moana-o-Raukawa) is a strait that separates the North and South Islands of New Zealand.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Cook Strait

Epiphyte

An epiphyte is a plant or plant-like organism that grows on the surface of another plant and derives its moisture and nutrients from the air, rain, water (in marine environments) or from debris accumulating around it.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Epiphyte

Foveaux Strait

Foveaux Strait is a strait that separates Stewart Island from the South Island of New Zealand.

Frederick Hutton (scientist)

Captain Frederick Wollaston Hutton (16 November 1836 – 27 October 1905) was an English-born New Zealand scientist who applied the theory of natural selection to explain the origins and nature of the natural history of New Zealand.

Gonochorism

In biology, gonochorism is a sexual system where there are two sexes and each individual organism is either male or female.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Gonochorism

Gonopore

A gonopore, sometimes called a gonadopore, is a genital pore in many invertebrates.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Gonopore

Hydroid (zoology)

Hydroids are a life stage for most animals of the class Hydrozoa, small predators related to jellyfish.

New Zealand

New Zealand (Aotearoa) is an island country in the southwestern Pacific Ocean.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and New Zealand

Otago

Otago (Ōtākou) is a region of New Zealand located in the southern half of the South Island administered by the Otago Regional Council.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Otago

Peristome

Peristome (from the Greek peri, meaning 'around' or 'about', and stoma, 'mouth') is an anatomical feature that surrounds an opening to an organ or structure.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Peristome

Sea urchin

Sea urchins or urchins, alternatively known as sea hedgehogs, are typically spiny, globular animals, echinoderms in the class Echinoidea.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Sea urchin

Seashell

A seashell or sea shell, also known simply as a shell, is a hard, protective outer layer usually created by an animal or organism that lives in the sea.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Seashell

Species

A species (species) is often defined as the largest group of organisms in which any two individuals of the appropriate sexes or mating types can produce fertile offspring, typically by sexual reproduction.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Species

Sponge

Sponges (also known as sea sponges), the members of the phylum Porifera (meaning 'pore bearer'), are a basal animal clade as a sister of the diploblasts.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Sponge

Test (biology)

In biology, a test is the hard shell of some spherical marine animals and protists, notably sea urchins and microorganisms such as testate foraminiferans, radiolarians, and testate amoebae.

See Goniocidaris umbraculum and Test (biology)

Tube feet

Tube feet (technically podia) are small active tubular projections on the oral face of an echinoderm, such as the arms of a starfish, or the undersides of sea urchins, sand dollars and sea cucumbers; they are more discreet though present on brittle stars, and have only a feeding function in feather stars.
