Diadema
Image by Samara Nicholas, published on 30/12/2009
Diadema urchin are very spectacular to view underwater. They are found in our most cleanest northern waters such as the Poor Knights. They keep themselves free of pollution by storing its faeces in the round globe in the centre, then forcibly jetting them far away!
