Even though the small Blood Star (Henricia leviuscula) grows to only 3-4 inches in diameter, its shocking red color makes it highly visible, even from a distance.
The Blood Star feels very leathery to the touch, and can often be found hanging off a rock by only one or two arms. We have found Blood Stars only in protected rocky areas covered with sponges and bryozoans.
