Black sand dollars are marine echinoderms belonging to the family Clypeasteridae, characterized by their flat, disc-shaped bodies and a dark coloration. They inhabit sandy or muddy ocean floors, often found in shallow waters along the coast. Unlike their lighter-colored counterparts, black sand dollars have a unique adaptation to their environment, allowing them to blend in with the substrate. These creatures play a role in the marine ecosystem, contributing to the health of benthic communities.
