Abstract
By examination of samples of Purpura lapillus from the whole of their European range, it appears that the species can exhibit quite as wide variation within a relatively small region such as that studied in the Dorset-Devon-Cornwall area, as it can over its whole geographic range. Population samples were taken from seventy-six localities, mostly in the south-west of England, and covering a wide range of environmental conditions, and the variations in these shells were studied in relation to two primary environmental factors, degree of exposure to wave-action and diet.
