Little green sea urchin

Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis is commonly known as the green sea urchin because of its characteristic green color. It is commonly found in northern waters all around the world including both the Pacific and Atlantic oceans northern and as far south as the Washington State and England.

The average adult size is around 50 mm (2 in), but it has been recorded at a diameter of 87 mm (3.4 in). The green sea urchin prefers to eat seaweeds but will eat other organisms. They are eaten by a variety of predators, including sea stars, crabs, large fish, mammals, birds, and humans. 

Beautiful start of a sea items collection in your cabinet of curiosities. Makes a lovely present for a collector, host/ hostess or anyone else interested in natures creatures.
