Nerita quadricolor or else? - dave r - 11-16-2009
Quadricolor to me has thin spiral ribs and less colour pattern, like the two shells bottom-middle and the shell bottom right. The others I am not sure of, they look to me like grossa. As I said, a very difficult and confused complex of Nerites, some consider quadricolor as a synonym of undata.
