Image of Littorina subrotundata (Carpenter 1864)
Description:
This individual was under the Salicornia at Penn Cove, along with multiple scattered Littorina sitkana individuals. The ruler markings are millimeters. The narrow yellowish band on a brown background is clearly visible. However, there are the beginnings of spiral ridges on the body whorl so this could just be an immature L. sitkana.
