Name: Argenville limpets
Keywords: Limpets, Marine resources, Mussels, Coraline algae, Rocky shore, Groen Rivier
Description: Argenvillei limpets feed on live kelp by trapping the fronds. Distinctive 'bite' marks are left on the frond. The shell of this limpet is serrated, which helps to cut the frond once it is clamped against the rock.
