Chitin is found in the kingdoms Animalia (animals) and Fungi. In the animal kingdom, it is found in arthropods (crustaceans, insects, etc.), mollusks, and fish (scales of certain species of fish, such as carp).It is also found in the cell walls of fungi. Chitin in the Natural World Chitin, by definition, is a tough outer covering found on many organisms in the natural world. 2  Most often perhaps, chitin is associated with the exoskeleton of an insect, whiâ¦.
Another feature of fungi is the presence of chitin in their cell walls. This is a long carbohydrate polymer that also occurs in the exoskeletons of insects, spiders, and other arthropods. The chitin adds rigidity and structural support to the thin cells of the fungus, and makes fresh mushrooms crisp.ather, the filaments are long and tubular, with a cytoplasm lining and large vacuole in the center. By contrast, the ascomycetes and basidiomycetes are septate; their filaments are partitioned by cellular cross-walls called septa. The structure of these septa varies, and is taxonomically useful.
