The word you're looking for is Exoskeleton. The outer covering is called an EXOSKELETON which is a hard covering on the outside of the body that provides both support and protection. The exoskeleton is made of CHITIN. Some exoskeletons are leathery like caterpillars, and some are tough and hard like ticks and crabs.
