Abstract

Seasonal variations in the concentrations of individual polyhydroxysteroids and related low molecular weight glycosides in pyloric caeca and stomach of the starfish Patiria (= Asterina) pectinifera collected at one location near Vladivostok have been studied. HPLC analysis on the fractions containing these substances showed a fairly constant composition of steroids in digestive tissues of P. pectinifera in spite of small seasonal variations in the relative concentrations of individual compounds.
