Chiton, which is a mollusk with seven overlapping plates on its top surface, which in this one are brown and white patterned, but fringed by a black-white speckled fleshy "skirt." Chiton is on a craggy light-gray limestone surface, and two piles of 7-9 little gray pellets are directly behind and below the chiton. A black scale bar = 1 centimeter long.
For #MolluscMonday, West Indian fuzzy chiton (Acanthopleura granulata) in rocky intertidal zone on San Salvador Island (The Bahamas 🇧🇸) changing limestone into mud as fecal pellets. Wrote more about this in my book 'Life Sculpted' (2023, @uchicagopress.bsky.social). press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/bo...

A mossy chiton clings to a rocky intertidal reef on the California coast. The image shows part of the chiton, “peeking” into the image. Thus, only five of the eight plates along its dorsal side are visible. The girdle surrounding the plates is covered by numerous setae - coarse bristles that give the chiton its “mossy” appearance.
