comatula
Comatula is a term used to refer to a group of brittle stars, or crinoids, that are free-swimming. Unlike other crinoids that are attached to the seabed, comatulas break free once they reach their adult stage and can move around freely in the water. These marine animals are typically found in deep-sea environments.
Webster Dictionary
Comatulanoun
a crinoid of the genus Antedon and related genera. When young they are fixed by a stem. When adult they become detached and cling to seaweeds, etc., by their dorsal cirri; -- called also feather stars
Etymology: [NL., fr. L. comatulus having hair neatly curled, dim. fr. coma hair.]
