Come on! Bring on more echinosex and psuedocopulation! I need something to occupy my time while I wait grad school news.

Great work Chris! Are there plans to expand the database to other Echinoderm groups in the near future?

The Ophiuroidea database is already up and running
www.marinespecies.org/Ophiuroidea

there are holothurian and crinoid ones currently underway.

I have no info on what will happen with the echinoids.

Great work with the asteroidea database!!! I'm interested on the crinoid database adress... I haven't been able to find it! Could you help me a little bit :o)

Thanx alot!

there isn't a crinoid database yet.

the only thing I can recommend is to go to
www.marinespecies.org and look up "Crinoidea"

eventually there will be a crinoid database..but prolly not for a few months yet..
