Centrostephanus Sacyi
''Centrostephanus'' is a genus of echinoderms belonging to the family Diadematidae.

Centrostephanus Longispinus
''Centrostephanus longispinus'', the hatpin urchin, is a species of sea urchin in the family Diadematidae. There are two subspecies, ''Centrostephanus l. longispinus'', found in the eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea and ''Centrostephanus l. rubricingulus'', found in the western Atlantic. Taxonomy In 1940, Mortenson believed that ''C. longispinus'' and ''C. rubicingulus'' were closely related species but that they could be distinguished because ''C. longispinus'' has smaller and fewer secondary interambulacral tubercles. In 1975, Fell re-examined the genus but was unable to find sufficient differences to justify separating them into two species. He suggested that ''C. rubicingulus'' should be considered a sub-species of ''C. longispinus''. Nor could he reliably distinguish the pair from ''C. besnardi'' except by the location from which they had been collected (''C. besnardi'' is from the eastern Pacific). He was also unable to distinguish between juveniles of '' C. coronatus ...

Centrostephanus Coronatus
''Centrostephanus coronatus'', also known as crowned sea urchin, is a species of sea urchin in the family Diadematidae. It was first described to science by Yale zoology Professor Addison Emery Verrill in 1867. Description The adults are all black, with some blue at the base of the spines. Juveniles have gray bands on their spines. The test is to in diameter. The spines are thin, hollow, brittle, and very sharp. The longest spines can be long. Five clusters of smaller spines surround the mouth on the underside of the test. Distribution Crowned sea urchins are found in the eastern Pacific Ocean from Monterey Bay, California to Peru, including the Gulf of California. The species has expanded its range north in recent years. They are also found in the Galapagos Islands. They live from the low-tide line to deep. These are bottom dwellers, favoring rocky substrates and reefs. Life history This urchin seeks holes and crevices in the bottom when resting. The rock protects ...
