Tambja morosa
(Bergh, 1877)
 
Tambja morosa: punctured?
 
punctured?
shows animal with probable secondary spines of a diadematid sea urchin embedded in its body (Maybe, it was dislodged, landed on the sea urchin and slipped between the primary spines to contact the secondaries? Then, the secondaries penetrated and were broken off at their bases as the animal struggled to free itself?)
