chitin Hard, tough substance that occurs widely in nature, particularly in the shells (exoskeletons) of arthropods such as crabs, insects and spiders. The walls of hyphae (microscopic tubes of fungi) are composed of slightly different chitin. Chemically chitin is a polysaccharide, derived from glucose.
