Distribution

Ecrobia maritima live in Pomorie Lake, a hyperhaline lagoon in eastern Bulgaria. Western Europe, Tunisia, the Peloponnesus and the Corinthian Gulf, all in the Ionian Sea, as well as — shockingly — the Black Sea coast in Romania, are habitats for E. ventrosa. Both the Black Sea and the Aegean Sea have been home to E. maritima.{{Cite journal |last1=Osikowski |first1=Artur |last2=Hofman |first2=Sebastian |last3=Georgiev |first3=Dilian |last4=Kalcheva |first4=Silviya |last5=Falniowski |first5=Andrzej |date=August 2016 |title=Aquatic SnailsEcrobia maritima(Milaschewitsch, 1916) andE.
