Bleeding Tooth

Nerita peloronta

Description:

Has red on inside of shell. Exterior patterns highly variable.

Habitat:

Found on rocks above the water in the intertidal zone. At a beach in Puntas.

Notes:

I should have taken a picture of the inside to show the red teeth. These snails were common where I grew up in south Florida.
