Population dynamics, reproduction and growth of the Indo-Pacific horned sea star, Protoreaster nodosus (Echinodermata; Asteroidea)
The horned sea star ( Protoreaster nodosus ) is relatively common in the Indo-Pacific region, but there is little information about its biology. This study of the population biology of P. nodosus was carried out in Davao Gulf, The Philippines (7°5′N, 125°45′E) between September 2006 and May 2008. Pr...

| description | The horned sea star (
Protoreaster nodosus
) is relatively common in the Indo-Pacific region, but there is little information about its biology. This study of the population biology of
P. nodosus
was carried out in Davao Gulf, The Philippines (7°5′N, 125°45′E) between September 2006 and May 2008.
Protoreaster nodosus
was found in sand and seagrass dominated habitats at a mean density of 29 specimens per 100 m
2
and a mean biomass of 7.4 kg per 100 m
2
, whereas a significantly lower density and biomass was found in coral and rock dominated habitats. Adult specimens (mean radius
R
= 10.0 cm) were found at depths of 0–37 m, whereas juveniles (
R
8 cm had well developed gonads and their sex ratio was 1:1.
Protoreaster nodosus
grew relatively slowly in an enclosure as described by the exponential function
G
= 7.433 e
−0.257 ×
R
. Maturing specimens (
R
= 6–8 cm) were estimated to have an age of 2–3 years. Specimens with a radius of 10 cm (population mean) were calculated to have an age of 5–6 years, while the maximum age (
R
= 14 cm) was estimated as 17 years. Potential effects of ornamental collection on the sea star populations are discussed. |
