Description
Exhibit description | Gorgonocephalus caryi yra dygiaodžių (Echinodermata) ofiūrų (Ophiuroidea) klasės gyvūnas. Ofiūros panašios į jūrų žvaigždes, tik jų spinduliai plonesni ir jos judresnės. Gorgonocephalus gentis priklauso šakotosioms ofiūroms, kurių spinduliai daug kartų šakojasi ir plonėja. Kūno pagrindą sudaro diskas o nuo jo į šalis išaugę daug kartų besišakojantys judrūs spinduliai, kuriais gyvūnas prisikabina prie koralų ir kitų povandeninių objektų. Gyvūnui judant atrodo, kad jis apkibęs besiraitančiomis gyvatėmis. Iš čia ir lotyniškas gyvūno pavadinimas, susijęs su graikų mitologija. Gorgonės – graikų mitologinės būtybės, kurioms ant galvos vietoj plaukų – gyvatės. Maitinasi įvairiais smulkiais bestuburiais. Gyvena Š. Ramiojo vandenyno dalyje iki 100 m. gylyje. Gorgonocephalus caryi lervos vystosi polipų alcionarijų (Alcyonaria) viduje kaip parazitas. Maitinasi jų audinių minkštosiomis dalimis. Paaugusios lervos persikelia ant savo rūšies suaugėlių gyvūnų ir maitinasi gaudydamos smulkius bestuburius, o kartais padaro žalos suaugėliams, nugremždamos jų viršutinius audinius. Aprašą paruošė A.
