Thanks, Wayne. With your ID I looked deeper into my collection and found
another juvenile collected in the company of mature P. pediculus. Many
thanks. To view the final presentation including mature specimens and a P.
pediculus form pullata (Sowerby, 1970) go to my website at

Marlo,
It appears to be a very juvenile Trivia pediculus. The mantle is exactly
the same color as an adult one. The white Trivia nix has a bright
yellow/orange mantle.

We're stumped with what looks like a juvenile Trivia. It was found at
Sebastian Inlet on the underside of a rock along the jetty in about four
feet of water. Hoping there are some Trivia or Florida fans out there whom
recognize the animal.
