Abstract
Mah, C.L. 2023. A new species of Astrosarkus from Western Australia including new Mesophotic occurrences of Indian Ocean Oreasteridae (Valvatida, Asteroidea). Memoirs of Museum Victoria 82: 143–165. Astrosarkus lu n. sp. (Oreasteridae, Valvatida; Asteroidea) is described in addition to new in situ observations. Further occurrences of Indo-Pacific Oreasteridae are surveyed, with emphasis on distributions in the relatively poorly understood mesophotic zone.
