The modern sea star Platasterias latiradiata, on the basis of ossicle
morphology, is removed from the fossil subclass Somasteroidea and
assigned to the genus Luidia of the living subclass Asteroidea. A
somasteroid assignment of this species should not be used in inferences
concerning evolution and morphology of primitive echinoderms.
