The development of new fisheries has been proposed to reduce populations of edible invasives, such as the European green crab and common periwinkle (Littorina littorea) in northeastern North America, although cultural barriers and concerns about creating a sustainable market for the exotics remain. From Wordnik.com. [Aquatic invasive species] Reference
The vascular system of Littorina littorea differs from the more familiar vertebrate pattern in a number of important respects: the heart receives primarily oxygenated blood to circulate to the body...; there is no capillary system between the arteries and veins but a series of indefinite haemal spaces, though these are not necessarily of dimensions very different from capillaries.

The following marine shells occur mixed with the freshwater species above enumerated: -- Buccinum undatum, Littorina littorea, Nassa reticulata, Purpura lapillus, Tellina solidula, Cardium edule, and fragments of some others. From Wordnik.com. [The Antiquity of Man] Reference
The presence of these northern shells cannot be explained away by supposing that they were inhabitants of the deep parts of the sea; for some of them, such as Tellina calcarea and Astarte borealis, occur plentifully, and sometimes, with the valves united by their ligament, in company with other littoral shells, such as Mya arenaria and Littorina rudis, and evidently not thrown up from deep water. From Wordnik.com. [The Antiquity of Man] Reference
In like manner the eatable cockle, mussel, and periwinkle (Cardium edule, Mytilus edulis, and Littorina littorea), which are met with in great numbers in the "middens," are of the ordinary dimensions which they acquire in the ocean, whereas the same species now living in the adjoining parts of the Baltic only attain a third of their natural size, being stunted and dwarfed in their growth by the quantity of fresh water poured by rivers into that inland sea.
