Lottia subrugosa
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.

Range & habitat
This species is found along the coasts of Brazil and Uruguay, mostly in the mid-intertidal zone. 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. They are also very abundant in the regions dominated by the barnacle Tetraclita stalactifera.
