Amphipholis Microdiscus
''Amphipholis'' is a large genus of brittle stars (Ophiuroidea) found in oceans worldwide from tropics to Arctic and Antarctic regions. Some species have been used to study echinoderm development (''Amphipholis kochii'') and bioluminescence (the Dwarf brittle star, ''Amphipholis squamata''). Systematics ''Amphipholis'' is a large genus with potentially many cryptic species. The high variability may be due to common parthenogenetic reproduction. The type species In zoological nomenclature, a type species (''species typica'') is the species name with which the name of a genus or subgenus is considered to be permanently taxonomically associated, i.e., the species that contains the biological type specimen ... of the genus is ''Amphipholis januarii '' Ljungman, 1866(=''Amphipholis gracillima'' (Stimpson, 1852)).

Amphipholis Squamata
''Amphipholis squamata'', common names brooding snake star and dwarf brittle star, is a species complexLe Gac, M., Féral, J.P., Poulin, E., Veyret, M. & Chenuil, A. (2004) ''Identification of allopatric clades in the cosmopolitan ophiuroid species complex ''Amphipholis squamata'' (Echinodermata). The end of a paradox?'' Marine Ecology Progress Series, 278: 171–178. of brittle stars in the family Amphiuridae. Description This species is small, grey to bluish-white, and phosphorescent. It has thin, short arms around 20 mm long. The round disc is 3 to 5mm, and has a scale covering with D-shaped radial plates. It has rhombic-shaped mouth shields and extremely wide mouth papillae. Distribution ''Amphipholis Squamata'' is found in all parts of the British Isles and also in Ireland. It has been recorded in many other parts of the world and molecular studies have shown that there are multiple species in this complex. Habitat This brittle star lives in the intertidal zone in sh ...
