Geographical Range: (Occurs at least here and in Norway, off Russia from the Barents Sea down to the central part of the Sea of Japan). Probably pan-Arctic. This and S. droebachiensis are the only species of urchin in the Puget Sound area that are also found in the NW Pacific off Russia (Bazhin, 1998).

Look Alikes
How to Distinguish from Similar Species: S. droebachiensis is similar size and only a slightly darker green hue. However, S. droebachiensis has tube feet darker than the spines, and usually purple. The spines of S. droebachiensis have ridges with rounded surfaces and with periodic, somewhat fan-shaped sculpturings.

"Most studies indicate an omnivorous diet. On the Grand Banks off Newfoundland gut contents were single-celled benthic organsisms, such as foraminiferans and diatoms, and the remains of various animals such as barnacles, bryozoans, hydroids and amphipods." (Lambert, Austin 2007)
