Needless information, incorrect common/indigenous names

[edit]

There is much good information on this article, however a good portion of it can be found on the general article for chitons - Polyplacophora, namely the anatomical details not peculiar to this species. I have removed three incorrect common/indigenous names that were listed - these appeared to be copied and pasted in some arbitrary fashion. These were not Māori names at all, one was "chiton" and another "marine mollusc". Please research thoroughly what you publish as it may be culturally offensive.Nickwilso (talk) 21:21, 1 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
