Stian, it is a cephalopod mullusk, related to the squibs. I forgot to add a link, here it is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nautilus
This is an fantastic creature, is it a type of crab or octopus?
Agree, it's amazing to know they have been around so long..
Welcome, Stian. This is one of my all time favorites, it is amazing to know that they have been around since long before the dinosaurs!
