Abstract

Patella ferruginea (Gastropoda: Patellidae) is an endangered marine gastropod, distributed on the western Mediterranean coasts, whose range has progressively contracted, due to intense human exploitation. Our attention focused on its genetic structure, in order to gather information about levels of genetic variability of P. ferruginea from the Asinara Marine Protected Area and a neighbouring non-protected area.
