Help me identify this.
Someone has to know what it is. I found it today in NW Washington where the Strait of Juan de Fuca turns into the Hood Canal. The top is leathery and slimy. It's not squishy at all or flexible. It reminds me of a seastar except by the shape.

It looks like a, um, well, female anatomy.

I think you're right, Zakity. I've never heard of those. Thanks!
