Abstract
In order to be successful in any study, one has to have reliable and informative sources. The Indian River Lagoon Species Inventory of the Smithsonian Marine Station at Fort Pierce is one such useful reference; it contains a complete list of species found in the Indian River Lagoon, and some more detailed entries containing basic biological and natural history information about the species. However, there are some holes in the database, particularly for non-megafauna such as small gastropods. I have chosen to focus on two particular families of gastropod, the Neritidae and the Littorinidae. I have researched species of each family about which there is no information in the species inventory, and written information sheets on each according to the format of the inventory. These sheets will be submitted to the Species Inventory webpage.
