Hemiasterina

Apical view of Pericosmus latus, from the Natural History Museum.


Belongs within: Atelostomata.
Contains: Hemiaster, Schizaster.

The Hemiasterina are a lineage of heart urchins known from the Lower Cretaceous to the present, characterised by the presence of a peripetalous fasciole (Fischer 1966).

Characters (from Fischer 1966): Petaloid spatangoids having peripetalous fasciole, sometimes combined with lateroanal or marginal fasciole, but none with subanal fasciole. Apical system ethmophract to ethmolytic. Primary spines rarely developed.
