About 940 [5] [6] extant and 430 [7] fossil species are recognized. They are also sometimes known as sea cradles or coat-of-mail shells or suck-rocks, or more formally as loricates, polyplacophorans, and occasionally as polyplacophores. Chitons have a shell composed of eight separate shell plates or valves. [3]
Acanthochitona zelandica, along with other species of chiton such as Notoplax violacea, have some of the simplest valve structure of all known chitons. [11] The dorsal layer, or tegmentum, is composed of one spherulitic sublayer, one crossed lamellar sublayer, and a ventral acicular sublayer. [ 11 ]
The blue-lined chiton features a head plate adorned with zigzagging white concentric lines, which may appear blue while the creature is alive, and lacks a dark border. When in its vibrant state, it often exhibits vivid electric blue stripes and specks.
Acanthopleura granulata, common name the West Indian fuzzy chiton (also known as Curbs or Sea Cradles), [1] is a medium-sized tropical species of chiton. This type of chiton's activity does not depend on spring-neap oscillations leading to lower locomotion loss. [ 2 ]
Acanthochitonidae chitons are found in a variety of marine habitats, including rocky intertidal zones, coral reefs, and seagrass beds. They are also found in deep sea environments, with some species occurring as deep as 3,000 meters. Acanthochitonidae chitons are known to be active grazers, feeding primarily on algae and detritus.
Like most chitons in this genus, T. lokii has blue, white, purple or black zig-zaged lines on each of the eight valves. The background color of the valves is often brown or red, but can also be bright blue or yellow to orange. The girdle is hairless and brown to red or pink.
Chitonidae is a family of chitons or polyplacophorans, marine mollusks whose shell is composed of eight articulating plates or valves. There are fifteen extant genera in three subfamilies . Subfamilies and genera
