Jungle starfish Protoreaster.
Origin: Indo-Pacific basin
These stars have 5 arms and their body is very stiff, covered with hard hillocks.

The starfishes are marine predators, which does not prevent their beauty.
Thus they are collected or fished by the local populations, to favor the development of the other marine species.
