Nerita versicolor, 04 August 2017

Nerita versicolor, the Four-toothed nerite;
Monroe county, Florida (04 August 2017).

Whenever I camp in this Florida Keys, I can almost always count on spotting Four-toothed nerites clambering around the rocky shorelines at night. This species of sea snail forages about, often in groups, within the intertidal zone and is quite variable in its colors and patterns.
