Callochiton dentatus (Spengler, 1797)

This flat, broad-shaped chiton has dark colored valves. The valve scuplture is minutely decussate and there are numerous 'eye dots' covering the valves. The dark colored girdle is clothed with shuttle-shaped or broadly needle-shaped scales, which often are detached. (Syn: Callochiton castaneus (Wood, 1815)
