Happy Heterocentrotus Holidays from the Echinoblog!

Its Christmas! I'm off to enjoy eggnog and awful movies but here's some bright colorful sea urchins for the holidays! Heterocentrotus from the Indo-Pacific (mostly Heterocentrotus mammilatus pics)
My best to all of my readers and followers for the holiday season!
