A few days ago Harry renewed his request for Conch-Lers to report records of
their finds of the genus Nerita from the west coast of Florida.

In addition to information about Nerita, several Conch-Lers provided the
following comments regarding Neritina reclivata.

Bill Clendenin - A very dead N. reclivata in the spoil from intercostal
waterway dredging below Venice Airport.
Mike Schenk - I have observed N. reclivata by the hundreds over the past six
years alive on bridge pilings and tree stumps partially submerged on the St.
Marks river about a mile upstream from the Appalachicola Bay (near
Tallahassee, FL).
Peggy Williams - N. reclivata is common in Philippi Creek in Sarasota -
upriver in fresh water at least.

I am working on a pictorial essay of N. reclivata from Florida.  All my
records of N. reclivata are from the west coast of Florida.  Has anyone
found N. reclivata on Florida's east coast?

See my recently semi-completed pictorial essay of P. pupa at my website.
