A example of an ophiuroidea
is a sea star or a star fish. They are part of the five different echinoderm groups: Crinoidea,
Asteroidea,
Ophiuroidea,
Echinoidea,
Holothuroidea.
R. Khler has written: 'Echinodermata Ophiuroidea'
Each species has its own scientific name however, their class is Ophiuroidea.
kingdom animalia --- phylum echinodermata--- class Ophiuroidea
Brittle stars or ophiuroids. These are echinoderms in the class Ophiuroidea closely related to starfish.
Phyla: Echinoderms Class: -Asteroidea - Sea stars -Ophiuroidea - Brittle stars -Holothoridea- Sea cucumbers
Fred Charles Ziesenhenne has written: 'A new brittle star from the Galapagos islands' -- subject(s): Ophiuroidea
The ophiuroidea is a group of echinoderms that include the brittle stars and basket stars. Over 60 species of this group are known to be bioluminescent or light emitting organisms.
That depends on which species of brittle star you are referring to. There are 1900 living species of brittle star.

These are the classes of Echinoderms:1.Asteroidea - star fish, sea stars2.Ophiuroidea - brittle stars3.Echinoidea - sea urchins4.Crinoidea - feather stars5.Holothuroidea - sea cucumbers
Echinoderms are a phylum of marine animals. I dont know what is ment by 'the three types' as there are 5 living classes : Crinoidea (Sea lilies), Asteroidea (starfish), Ophiuroidea (brittle stars ), Echinoidea (sea urchins and sand dollars) and Holothuroidea (sea cucumbers). The most commonly observed being Asteroidea, Echinodea and Holothuroide as Crinoidea are generally benthic sessile creatures and most Ophiuroidea are benthic and photophobic so even the littoral ones are rarely seen during the day,
The 5 living classes of echinoderms are Asteroidea (sea stars) Crinoidea (sea lillies) Echinoidea (sea urchins and sand dollars) Holothuroidea (sea cucumbers) Ophiuroidea (brittle stars and basket stars)
