Initiation of posterior coeloms was similar in ophioplutei of another family and may be similar in diverse ophiuroids. Initiation is easily missed without frequent observations. Early interpretations that diagrammed a fission of the first-formed coeloms appear to have influenced later authors for more than a century. Growth of posterior coeloms from a small initial size facilitated observations of developmental plasticity in growth of coeloms relative to that of larval arms. This plasticity, as observed in echinoplutei of echinoids, is relatively greater growth of a ciliary band for food capture when food is scarce and relatively greater growth of juvenile structures that will function after metamorphosis when food is abundant; however, juvenile structures develop extensively as a rudiment within the echinopluteus prior to settlement and metamorphosis, whereas in ophioplutei there is little development of juvenile structures until metamorphosis. In ophioplutei there is, therefore, less scope for shifting growth to structures that gain function after metamorphosis. Nevertheless, we found that when ophioplutei were at higher concentrations of food, the growth of the posterior coeloms was greater relative to the growth of the larval arms. Developmental plasticity in allocation of growth to larval and postlarval equipment can occur despite disparate patterns of development.AbstractThe catecholamine 3,4-dihydroxyphenethylamine, or dopamine, acts as a neurotransmitter across a broad phylogenetic spectrum. Functions attributed to dopamine in the mammalian brain include regulation of motor circuit
