Lottia alveus

Eelgrass limpet:

Eelgrass limpet (Lottia alveus): This limpet lives on Eelgrass (Zostera marina). Its Atlantic Ocean cousin is apparently extinct, so it's a reminder of how we shouldn't assume that the ocean is too big to be permanently altered by humans. As for the surfgrass limpet, it is apparently not reported from Southeast Alaska.
