Reposted by Jenifer CroceLaurent Formery @laurentformery.bsky.social · 26/09/2025Sea urchin metamorphosis is maybe one of the most radical event in developmental biology. In just about an hour, these little pluteus larvae completely reorganize their entire body plan. Very happy that this video got awarded an honorable mention by #NikonSmallWorld 😃 28830
