Patiriella calcar, or Meridiastra calcar, commonly known as Carpet Sea Star or Cushion Sea Star or Eight-armed Sea Star, is an Australian species of sea star. The Cushion Sea Star has eight short, distinct, triangular “arms”, though 7- or 9-armed individuals can be found. These “arms” are laterally fused together for some of their length, leaving ray-like tips of varying length to jut from the disk-like body. This species aboral surface can be any color or combination of colors, while the oral side is uniformly pale. This sea star attains a maximum diameter from arm tip to arm tip of 2-4 inches.
