Patiriella Mortenseni
''Meridiastra mortenseni'' is a sea star of the family Asterinidae endemic to New Zealand. Discovered as a new species in 2002, it is named after T. Mortensen, who recorded it as distinct from ''Patiriella regularis'', the New Zealand common cushion star, in 1925. According to genetic evidence, ''P. mortenseni'' as moved from the ''Patiriella'' genus to ''Meridiastra'' in 2004. Reciprocal transplant experiments in Fiordland have shown it is less tolerant of hyposaline conditions than the sympatric (but distantly related) ''P. regularis''. This is reflected in its distribution: it lives in deeper waters (at depths of roughly 10±3 m in Milford and Doubtful Sound Doubtful Sound / Patea is a fiord in Fiordland, in the far south west of New Zealand. It is located in the same region as the smaller but more famous and accessible Milford Sound / Piopiotahi. It took second place after Milford Sound as New Zea ...s), below the low salinity layer.

Patiriella Regularis
__NOTOC__ ''Patiriella regularis'', or New Zealand common cushion star, is a sea star of the family Asterinidae, native to New Zealand. It has an arm spread of up to . It is one of New Zealand's most common rocky shore starfish. It is abundant in shallow water around both mainland islands. They come in a large range of colours and have 4–6 arms. They feed on algae, barnacles and invertebrates. To catch their food the cushion star inflates its cushion and then deflates on top of its prey. They were introduced into waters in south east Tasmania, where they have become well established. Concern exists that they may be an invasive species. They breed in January to March. Once fertilised, 9–10 weeks are needed for them to grow from larvae. Research A genetic variance is found in ''P. regularis'' from the North and South of New Zealand.

Addison Emery Verrill
Addison Emery Verrill (February 9, 1839 – December 10, 1926) was an American invertebrate zoologist, museum curator and university professor. Life Verrill was born on February 9, 1839 in Greenwood, Maine, the son of George Washington Verrill and Lucy (Hillborn) Verrill. As a boy he showed an early interest in natural history, building collections of rocks and minerals, plants, shells, insects and other animals. When he moved with his family to Norway, Maine at age fourteen he attended secondary school at the Norway Liberal Institute. Verrill started college in 1859 at Harvard University and studied under Louis Agassiz. He graduated in 1862 with a B.A. He went on scientific collecting trips with Alpheus Hyatt and Nathaniel Shaler in the summer of 1860 to Trenton Point, Maine and Mount Desert Island and in the summer of 1861 to Anticosti Island and Labrador. In 1864 Verrill made reports on mining, or prospective mining, properties in New Hampshire, New York, and Pennsylvania. Tw ...
