Melarhaphe neritoides (Linnaeus 1758)

Melarhaphe neritoides, common name : the small periwinkle, is a species of small sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Littorinidae, the winkles or periwinkles.^[1]

This species was previously known as Littorina neritoides.

Melarhaphe is a monotypic genus, in other words, this is the only species in that genus.

Description

This is a tiny species with the size of an adult shell varying between 4 mm and 9 mm. It has a high pointed spire. The dark aperture is oval. The purple-brown spiral band can be clearly seen on the body whorl.

The small periwinkle breeds in late winter. Its pelagic egg capsules release planktonic larvae.

Distribution

This species is found in European waters from Norway down south, in the Atlantic Ocean along the Azores, Canary Islands, Cape Verde, Morocco, Mauritania; in the Mediterranean Sea and the Black Sea.

Småstrandsnegl (Melarhaphe neritoides) er et bløtdyr og tilhører sneglene i gruppen strandsnegler. Denne marine sneglen lever lavt nede i tidevannssonen på berg og klipper. Den kan tåle en lengre periode i luft uten å tørke ut.

Larvestadiene er frittlevende (pelagisk) i vann. De har utviklet lunge og ånder med gjeller.
