neritic - adj., of, relating to, or inhabiting the ocean waters over the continental shelf between the low tide mark and a depth of 200 meters.


Yet another oceanic word. From German neritisch, apparently from Greek either Nereid (a sea nymph) or Nereus (a sea god, and father of the Nereids). As usual, a semi-useful Wikilink (I love the biome navigation box).
