Gibbose Stromb

Gibberulus gibberulus

Gibbose Stromb

Adult gibbose strombs inhabit warm, shallow marine sand and rubble around reef systems. They feed by scraping algae, detritus, and other plant material from the seabed. The stout, rounded shell provides strong protection, while the muscular foot can help the animal push and hop across the substrate.
