Diagnosis

Body stellate, arms triangular, elongate, interradial arcs curved to straight. Abactinal plates abutted, weakly convex, relatively flat, not tabulate. Abactinal, marginal and actinal plates with abundant granular cover, obscuring plate boundaries. Adambulacral plates with ordered spine series, furrow spines long and slender.

Comments

Pseudoceramaster was established by Jangoux (1981) to accommodate species lacking tabulate abactinal plates that are diagnostic of Ceramaster . Along with the type species, Pseudoceramaster regularis , Pentagonaster pulvinus and Pentagonaster misakiensis were also assigned to Pseudoceramaster ( Jangoux, 1981) . This was followed by Pseudoceramaster hunti, (H.E.S. Clark & McKnight, 2001) .
