: Each collected chiton was relaxed before killing (Avila-Poveda, ) following the bioethics recommendations for the humanitarian killing of animals established under the Mexican law (NOM-033-SAG/ZOO-2014 derogating to NOM-033-ZOO-1995) in accordance with the ethical principles of autonomy and justice. Specimen collection was conducted under the corresponding research permits (PPF/DGOPA-130/15). The procedures for specimen size selection, collection, relaxation, fixation, and preservation are consistent with the welfare and care of the animals following the Five R´s Principle as closely as possible in invertebrates (Crespi-Abril and Rubilar, ) and in accordance with the ethical principles of beneficence and nonmaleficence.
