Description

Washed up at the rocky water’s edge. No idea what it is but the closest thing it reminded me of was Philine angasi - just a little. I thought it was a piece of a bigger animal at first but on looking closer (without my glasses...) it seemed to be an individual entity, internal organs and all.
