Chiton magnificus, the liquorice sea cradle, is a Southeast Pacific species of edible chiton, a marine polyplacophoran mollusk in the family Chitonidae, the typical chitons.[1]
Description
Chiton magnificus is a very large chiton, with specimen confirmed at length of up to Шаблон:Cvt. It is shiny and very dark bluish-grey.[2]
Distribution and habitat
The distribution of Chiton magnificus ranges along the Pacific coast of South America from Cape Horn in Chile[3] to San Lorenzo Island in Peru.[2] Although there are old claimed records of this species from the Galápagos Islands, these are now considered incorrect.[2]
This species is found in places with strong current along rocky coasts, including pools.[2] It can be found at depths of Шаблон:Cvt,[4] but in northern Chile it appears to be restricted to subtidal areas.[2]
Human use
Chiton magnificus is edible. Although relatively uncommon, it is one of the few commercially important chitons in its range, others being the even larger, up to Шаблон:Cvt, spiny Acanthopleura echinata and the smaller, up to Шаблон:Cvt, brownish Chiton granosus.[2][5]
