Eating In Translation: Skate egg cases
Quote:

Skates, and ultimately skate wings, come from egg cases like the one shown here. Most such "mermaid's purses" wash ashore only after the hatchling has emerged in deep water. Though this case seemed intact, the egg was almost certainly no longer viable after being tossed in the surf and left high and dry.
