I'll do another update on ranges after I get feedback on conch-L (hopefully)
and David Reid has had a look at your shells.  Keep an eye out for more
whenever you're at the seashore.  Thanks, again.

Marlo,

Thanks for sharing your persistent and helpful work with us.

I think it's worth mentioning that Echinolittorina interrupta occurs at
least as far north as Fort Macon, NC (as IDed by Harry Lee). Porter's (1974)
Atlas of Occurrence records only Echinus nodulosus and Nodilittorina
tuberculata (only temporally remote records from Cape Lookout?) but no
Echinolittorina interrupta, riisei, angustior, or ziczac from North
Carolina.

I surmise that the range of Nodilittorina interrupta has extended into North
Carolina in the last 20 years.
