Patella vulgata, the common limpet, is a frequent site on the coast of the United Kingdom. When the tide comes in they move around scraping algae from the rocks with their tongues, which are the world's strongest known biological structure.

Stuck like a limpet' is a common English phrase, leading to the name of the limpet mine that can stick to the side of a ship. Here is a group of true limpets (Patella vulgata) with their shells stuck onto a pink granite rock on a beach at Cot Valley, Cornwall, England. ('Limpet' is a name given to many salt- and freshwater gastropods, but these are the real McCoy.) Also on this rock are small acorn barnacles (Sessilia). Barnacles are encrusters, attaching themselves permanently to a hard surface. Acorn barnacles attach straight on to the rock, unlike a goose barnacle, which attaches via a stalk. Surprisingly, barnacles are related to crabs and other crustaceans, an entirely different line of evolution from the gastropods nearby (the limpets).

Stuck like a limpet' is a common English phrase, leading to the name of the limpet mine that can stick to the side of a ship. Here is a group of true limpets (Patella vulgata) with their shells stuck onto a black granite cliff rock on a beach at Cot Valley, Cornwall, England. ('Limpet' is a name given to many salt- and freshwater gastropods, but these are the real McCoy.).
