Patella depressa

1

Patella depressa is a species of sea snail, a true limpet, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Patellidae, one of the families of true limpets. Patella depressa is a nomen dubium according to Christiaens (1973, 1983); Patella intermedia gets priority. Nevertheless, the name Patella depressa is in usage among British authors (e.g. Graham, 1988) and is assumed as valid.
