Unknown Brittle star

Agree whit Scott is a Brittle star!

It's a brittle star, a member of the "class" Ophiuroidea and most likely a member of the "order" Ophiurida. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brittle_star Sweden has a Swedish Taxonomic Database "Dyntaxa" and surely this brittle star is found in there. If one were up for it, they could begin searching here http://www.dyntaxa.se/Taxon/Info/4000087 This would only provide names but these could then be used to search google images. As one might imagine there are quite a number of species of brittle stars in Sweden's waters... I skimmed but didn't find it to my satisfaction. It looks smaller than adult size maybe. I do not know if that would affect color. I also do not know if the specimen is alive in the spotting.

Very interesting, hope you get an ID, I would love to know what it is?!

Yes, some sort of brittle star.

I think Frazier is correct. Here are some images of them. http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=images+of+brittle+star&qpvt=images+of+brittle+star&FORM=IGRE

Looks like a brittle star missing a leg...

Wow, this is interesting. I wonder what it is ?
