Sand dollars are of the phylum Echinodermata, class Echinoidea. Xy found this one on the beach in South Carolina.

Back when I was working on Interactive Taxonomic Zoology, I knew the phylum and class for lots of creatures. But while walking on the beach, I found I’d forgotten. I couldn’t even remember the three classes of sponges.
