echinoderms
Sea star or starfish (Asteroidea)Brittle stars, basket stars, serpent stars (Ophiuroidea)Sea urchins, heart urchins and sanddollars (Echinoidea)Holothurians or sea cucumbers (Holothuroidea)Feather stars and sea lilies (Crinoidea).
There are actually four major classes of echinoderms. These are Crinoidea, Asteroidea, Ophiuroidea, Eichionidea, Holothuroidea, and Concentricyloidea. The animals in these range from sea lilies to sea urchins.
Sea stars are capable of both types of reproduction.
Yes, there are also sea cucumbers and crinoids.
There is about 1800 but maybe even more to be discovered :)

The six classes of living echinoderms are: Asteroidea - sea stars (starfish). Ophiuroidea - brittle stars and basket stars. Echinoidea - sea urchins and sand dollars. Holothuroidea - sea cucumbers. Crinoidea - sea lilies and feather stars. Concentricycloidea - sea daisies. Each class exhibits unique adaptations and forms, contributing to the diversity of this marine phylum.
There are over 6000 types of echinoderms. A few examples are the banded-arm brittle star, common sea urchin, cushion sea star, etc. I you were looking for types of echinoderms, they areSea star or starfish (Asteroidea)Brittle stars, basket stars, serpent stars (Ophiuroidea)Sea urchins, heart urchins and sand dollars (Echinoidea)Holothurians or sea cucumbers (Holothuroidea)Feather stars and sea lilies (Crinoidea).
Brittle stars have several natural predators, including fish, crabs, sea birds, and some marine mammals. They are also vulnerable to certain species of larger sea stars that may feed on them. Additionally, brittle stars may face competition for food and resources from other bottom-dwelling marine organisms.
