Comatulida

+**Comatulida** are the vibrant, free-moving creatures known as feather stars. Unlike their stalked relatives, these ancient [Echinoderms](/wiki/Echinoderm) possess ten or more feathery arms for filter feeding and can actively swim or crawl. They represent a diverse order within the class [Crinoidea](/wiki/Crinoidea), gracing coral reefs and deep-sea environments worldwide.
