Journeying to Sark Island in Channel Islands, UK unveils yet another wonder - the Common Urchin (Echinus esculentus), reminding us of nature's diversity even within species. Saltstraumen in Bod, Norway surprises us with an enchanting sight as Two Atlantic Wolffish (Anarhichas lupus) curiously peek out from a hole amidst sea urchin habitats. Delving deeper into history through Echinidea: sea urchins and sea dollars lithographs from 1904 transports us back to an era when these captivating creatures were first documented. Fossils take center stage as we admire extinct sea urchins like Echinocorys (Ananchites) 1, Galerites globulosus2, and Nucleolites patella3 – remnants of ancient marine ecosystems that once thrived on our planet. Hawaii graces us with a rare sighting - The Blue-spotted Sea Urchin (Astropyga radiata).
