Note

(Note: I am reposting this specimen because the winner did not pay for it) One specimen of the very rare and very hard to obtain subtidal urchin Arbacia spatuligera. This specimen was washed ashore alive after some very strong surges in northern Chile during 2024, and it is in very good condition with the exception of the damage seen in the images around the peristome. This is the test, denuded, of a normal sized specimen, and it was lightly cleaned but still can be cleaned further if needed. An interesting Natural History Item at a very low initial price, due to the damage that can be seen in the images.
