Belcher's Sea Star, scientifically known as *Astropecten belcheri*, is a species of starfish found in the shallow waters of the Indian Ocean and Western Pacific. It typically has a flattened body with five arms and can vary in color, often displaying shades of orange, yellow, or brown. This sea star primarily feeds on small invertebrates and is known for its ability to regenerate lost arms. These sea stars inhabit sandy or muddy substrates, where they can easily blend in with their surroundings. Belcher's Sea Star plays a role in the marine ecosystem by helping to control the population of its prey. Its unique adaptations allow it to thrive in diverse environments, making it an interesting subject of study in marine biology.
