Lepetodrilus

Lepetodrilus is a genus of small, deep-sea sea snails, hydrothermal vent limpets, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Lepetodrilidae.[3]

Lepetodrilus
Numerous individuals of the hydrothermal vent limpet Lepetodrilus sp. partially cover the shells of Gigantopelta chessoia on the East Scotia Ridge site E2 in the Scotia Sea, South Atlantic Ocean. Scale bar 10 cm.
