Sažetak
The aim of this research was to contribute to the knowledge of morphometric characteristics of mediolittoral sea snail Phorcus turbinatus (Born, 1778). Sampling was carried out eight times, comprehending all seasonal changes. The mean shell height of the sampled population (n = 668) was Sh = 13.57 mm, while the mean shell width was Sw = 14.51 mm. The smallest specimen measured 3.80 mm shell height and 4.30 mm shell width. The largest measured specimen had 26.85 mm shell height and 25.35 mm shell width. Positive allometric growth was determined, with specimens shell growing more in width until they reach sexual maturity, which is at approximately 11 mm, and more in height afterward.
