      What is the girdle of a chiton?
      A girdle is part of the anatomy of a chiton, one class of marine mollusks, the class Polyplacophora. The shell of a chiton consists of eight valves which articulate with one another. The girdle is a strong but flexible structure that in most cases encircles the plates, holding them all together.

      Why do chitons have girdle spines?
      This implies that polysaccharides make up the bulk of the matrix. The girdle spines often bear length-parallel striations. The wide form of girdle ornament suggests it serves a secondary role; chitons can survive perfectly well without them.
