Necklace sea star on a magnificent sea anemone near Sipadan Island, Borneo

The coloration of this necklace sea star reminds us a bit of the red and white of a candy cane. And we’re not alone in making that association—one of the lesser-used common names for the animal is the peppermint sea star. Found in the shallow waters of the Indian and western Pacific Oceans, the colors of the necklace sea star vary, with brilliant orange and pale-yellow combinations in place of the red and white seen here.
