Lottia subrugosa is a species of sea snail, a true limpet, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Lottiidae. It is still designated under its synonyms Acmaea subrugosa or Collisella subrugosa in many textbooks.^[1]^[2]

This species is found along the coasts of Brazil and Uruguay, mostly in the mid-intertidal zone.^[3] It is the most common limpet with large population sizes in the Brazilian midlittoral. It can fill the small gaps in mussel beds dominated by Brachidontes solisianus and Brachidontes darwinianus.^[4] They are also very abundant in the regions dominated by the barnacle Tetraclita stalactifera.^[5]

The shell size is between 16 and 30 mm
