It has numerous tubercles located along its five arms. These tubercles are bright red and extend upward from the arms. It has a gray body with red stripes that connect the tubercles. This creates an appearance of a grid made of interconnecting wires.[5]The skeleton is composed of many calcareous ossicles and spicules. They are located inside the layer of connective tissue. This skeleton supports the large central disk.[6] It is distributed in the western Indo-Pacific[7][8] in locations ranging from shallow tidal pools to reefs up to {{convert|100|m|ft|abbr=on}} deep.[9] Behaviour and dietP. linckii is active in the daytime.[10] It is a popular aquarium specimen, but is considered incompatible with many other invertebrates, as it will eat soft corals, sponges, tube worms, clams, other starfish, and the like.[11]It is also a heavily fished species for the curios trade.
