It was first described as Asterias oculata by the British zoologist Thomas Pennant in 1777, later being transferred to the genus Henricia.[1] DescriptionHenricia oculata (NB: This translates from Latin as "eyed Henry") is a five-armed starfish that grows to a diameter of about {{convert|12|cm|in|0|abbr=on}}. It is rather rigid and the aboral (upper) surface feels rough due to there being numerous low spines under the skin. It is variable in colour, being dark red, brown, purple or yellowish, the outer portions of the arms sometimes being paler than the disc and inner portions. It is very similar in appearance to Henricia sanguinolenta, but tends to have more irregularly arranged dorsal spinelets that are more opaque.[3]DistributionThe species is found in the northeastern Atlantic Ocean, mainly around the coasts of the United Kingdom and Ireland. It also occurs in Guernsey, Jersey and northern France, and there have been isolated occurrences in Norway and the United States.[2] It is most common on the western coasts of the British Isles and occurs on rock, boulders, stones, shingle, gravel, and shelly substrates. Its depth range is from the low intertidal down to {{convert|50|m|ft|-1|abbr=on}} or more.[1] EcologyPrimarily a suspension feeder, H. oculata consumes suspended organic particles, detritus, sponges, hydroids and bryozoans, but the starfish can supplement these by everting its stomach to feed on other invertebrates. More than 90% of individuals of this species are associated with a parasitic copepod, Asterocheres lilljeborgi.[4] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite WoRMS |author=Mah, Christopher |year=2018 |title=Henricia oculata (Pennant, 1777) |id=123970 |accessdate=4 July 2018 |db=Asteroidea}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q2218059}}2. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.iobis.org/explore/#/taxon/452857 |title=Henricia oculata (Pennant, 1777) |publisher=OBIS: Ocean Biogeographic Information System |accessdate=4 July 2018}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.habitas.org.uk/marinelife/species.asp?item=ZB1650 |title=Henricia oculata (Pennant, 1777) |work=Encyclopedia of Marine Life of Britain and Ireland. |accessdate=4 July 2018}} 4. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.marlin.ac.uk/species/detail/1131 |title=Bloody Henry starfish (Henricia oculata) |publisher=MarLIN |accessdate=4 July 2018}} 4 : Echinasteridae|Fauna of the Atlantic Ocean|Taxa named by Thomas Pennant|Starfish described in 1777 |
