The body is covered by short and stout spines, and characterized by big, fly-trap like pedicellariae. When alive, the central disc is swollen, forming five radial bumps.[2] It is a rather big species, and can grow up to 30 cm across.[4] This species seems to be a predator of deep sea coral and other cnidarians, and was observed climbing on corals in order to feed.[2][3] This species remained unknown to science until 2014,[4] but since its description it was observed many times in its environment by deep-sea research missions, such as Okeanos Explorer 2015, off Hawaii.[2] Its name comes from its impressive pedicellariae, which look like traps of the carnivorous plant called "Venus fly trap" (Dionaea muscipula).[4] Habitat and repartitionThis species lives in the depths of Pacific Ocean, and has been recorded in Hawaii, New Caledonia and New Zealand,[1] between 425 and 1500 meters deep.[5] Bibliography
