    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.
    Because of this, the shell provides protection at the same time as permitting the chiton to flex upward when needed for locomotion over uneven surfaces, and even allows the animal to curl up into a ball when dislodged from rocks. The shell plates are encircled by a skirt known as a girdle.

    Tonicella lineata, commonly known as the lined chiton, is a species of chiton from the North Pacific. Tonicella lineata is a very colorful chiton, having blue, purple or black straight or zig-zag lines on each of the eight valves. The background color of the valves is often brown or red, but can also be bright blue or yellow to orange.
    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.
