Flatbottom Seastar -
Asterias amurensis
Order: Forcipulatida  Family: Asteriidae  Genus:
Asterias
Common names:
Flatbottom seastar, Japanese Seastar, Japanese starfish, Nordpazifischer Seestern (German), North Pacific seastar, northern Pacific seastar, purple-orange seastar
Organism type:
sea star
Originally found in far north Pacific waters and areas surrounding Japan, Russia, North China, and Korea, the northern Pacific seastar (Asterias amurensis) has successfully invaded the southern coasts of Australia and has the potential to move as far north as Sydney. The seastar will eat a wide range of prey and has the potential for ecological and economic harm in its introduced range. Because the seastar is well established and abundantly widespread, eradication is almost impossible. However, prevention and control measures are being implemented to stop the species from establishing in new waters.
Asterias amurensis
(northern Pacific seastar) can grow upto 50 cm in diameter. It is yellow with red and purple pigmentation on its five arms, and a small central disk. Its distinctive characteristic is its upturned tips which are its identification key when compared to similar starfish. The undersides are completely yellow and arms are unevenly covered with small, jagged-edged spines. These spines line the groove in which the tube feet lie, and join up at the mouth in a fan-like shape.
Occurs in
estuarine habitats, marine habitats
While
Asterias amurensis
(northern Pacific seastar) prefers waters temperatures of 7-10°C, it has adapted to warmer Australian waters of 22°C. It is typically found in shallow waters of protected coasts and is not found on reefs or in areas with high wave action. The starfish is capable of tolerating many temperatures and wide ranges of salinities. It is often found in estuaries and on mud, sand or rocky sheltered areas of intertidal zones. The maximum temperature for
Asterias amurensis
is 25°C and the minimum is 0°C. The salinity range for this species is between 18.7 and 41ppt, while the maximum depth at which individuals have been found is 220m.
Asterias amurensis
(northern Pacific seastar) has the potential to establish large populations in new areas. Estimates made in Port Philip Bay (where they were first detected), indicate that numbers reached as much as 12 million individuals in two years. In their native range they are known to go through 'bust and boom' cycles reaching high abundance and then rapid decline.
The northern Pacific seastar is a voracious feeder, preferring mussels, scallops and clams. It will eat almost anything it can find, including dead fish and fish waste. The seastar is considered a serious pest of native marine organisms. The seastar is also considered a mariculture pest, settling on scallop longlines, spat bags, mussel and oyster lines and salmon cages.
In Japan seastar outbreaks cost the mariculture industry millions of dollars.
No valuable human use has been documented. Hunting incentives have been suggested, such as catching and drying as souvenirs.
Native range
: Native to Japan, North China, Korea, Russia, and far North Pacific waters.
