Definition
A genus of marine spiny-skinned animals (echinoderms) that includes sea urchins with distinctive curved spines.
Etymology
From Latin 'centrum' (center) + Greek 'otos' (ear). Named for the distinctive ear-like appearance of structures in this genus.
Kelly Says
These sea urchins have spines that curve inward toward the center of their bodies, which is so unusual that scientists named the entire genus after this weird feature—it's like having hair that always curves toward your ears!
