APHOTOMARINE

A common find on sheltered rocky shores on the lowershore, especially on the lowest spring tides. Images of species taken at various locations along the south coast of Devon and Cornwall.

Verruca stroemia can commonly be found living on the undersides of rocks or shells, like Great Scallop, Pecten maximus, on the lowershore. The species is also occasionally found washed up on shells or shell fragments on the strandline or below as seen in some of the images above.

The word Verruca is decended from the Ancient Greek word used for 'rock' / 'reef' and 'hill'.
