- Marine invertebrates with tube feet and five-part radially symmetrical bodies
- Echinoderms (Phylum Echinodermata) are a phylum of marine animals. Echinoderms are found at every ocean depth, from the intertidal zone to the abyssal zone. Aside from the problematic Arkarua, the first definitive members of the phylum appeared near the start of the Cambrian period.
- Any member of the Echinodermata, a group of radially symmetric, spiny-skinned marine animals. Examples of echinoderms include seastars, sea urchins, sea cucumbers, crinoids, and sand dollars
- Marine animals having spiny skeletons, including starfishes, echinoids, and crinoids.
- A slow-moving or sessile marine deuterostome with a water vascular system and, in adults, radial anatomy. Echinoderms include sea stars, brittle stars, sea urchins, feather stars, and sea cucumbers.
- Eh-KINE-oh-derm/ A member of the phylum Echinodermata, marine organisms with internal, calcareous skeletons, five-part radial symmetry, and a water vascular system. Examples are starfishes, sand dollars, crinoids, and sea cucumbers.
- A spinyskinned invertebrate.
- Member of a major phylum within the deuterostomes that includes sea urchins, starfish, crinoids, and sea cucumbers. Although they possess bilateral symmetry initially, adults usually show a fivefold radial symmetry.
