Description
We describe a new species of the genus Acanthochitona Bergenhayn, 1930 from a group of small chitons inhabiting shallow waters of the South China Sea and near the Ryukyu Islands. The new species differs from others in this group in the presence of slightly flattened dorsal corpuscles with a narrow crest apically.
