This book investigates the systematic position and genesis of a specific stock of chitons, the Acanthochitidae. After discussing the group within the wider context of chitonid classification, it describes and illustrates the species, discussing their geographical distribution. It concludes that this group, which is distinctly degenerate in character, may be an offshoot of an early stock of chitons. The author provides a detailed examination of this unique evolutionary lineage, offering insights into the diversity and evolution of chitons.
