The role of epiphytic algae and different species of Sargassum in the distribution and feeding of herbivorous amphipods

Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2014
The presence of particular algal species can directly influence the distribution and abundance of mesoherbivores. The aim of this study was to answer the following questions: Do Sargassum beds of different localities show variation in the load of ...

Description of four new species of marine macroalgae from Rangitāhua, New Zealand

Phycological Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Four species of marine macroalgae are described from Rangitāhua, the northern islands of the New Zealand archipelago. The flora of this region has been considered to have its strongest affinities with other warm‐water regions of the Pacific and Indian Oceans, with very low levels of endemism.

Dynamics of epiphytism on Padina concrescens (Dictyotales: Phaeophyta) from the southwestern coast of the Baja California Peninsula, Mexico

Ciencias Marinas, 2007
The community dynamics of algal epiphytes was studied in relation to the area available on Padina concrescens at Los Cerritos, Baja California Sur (Mexico). Monthly surveys were conducted over ten months.

Interspecific facilitation, elevation, and site influence survival and growth for intertidal Ostrea angasi restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction The flat oyster Ostrea angasi previously formed extensive reefs throughout temperate regions of Australia. These reefs were overharvested and destroyed after European colonization and have been functionally extinct for >150 years. While large‐scale subtidal O.

Ecological stoichiometry of the epiphyte community in a subtropical forest canopy

Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Epiphytes in tree canopies make a considerable contribution to the species diversity, aboveground biomass, and nutrient pools in forest ecosystems. However, the nutrient status of epiphytes and their possible adaptations to nutrient deficiencies in the ...

Juvenile and Adult Three‐Spined Sticklebacks Exhibit Different Habitat Use in Shallow Baltic Sea Bays

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Three‐spined sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus) have become dominant in many Baltic Sea coastal fish assemblages, yet life‐stage‐specific habitat use remains poorly understood. We surveyed shallow water habitats along the coast of Gotland, Sweden, to examine how juvenile and adult stickleback abundances relate to variables such as submersed

Impacts of Extreme Events on Community Livelihoods: El Niño Effects and Management of Seaweed Farms in the South Coast of Kenya

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
Seaweed farming affected by El Nino event, needs policy, data and value‐added documents ABSTRACT Seaweed farming is a vital economic activity for coastal communities in the Western Indian Ocean, with growing potential in food, bio‐stimulants, pharmaceuticals and environmental management. Some farmed species, such asEucheuma denticulatum and Kappaphycus

Branchfall as a Demographic Filter for Epiphyte Communities: Lessons from Forest Floor-Based Sampling.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Local variation in the abundance and richness of vascular epiphytes is often attributed to environmental characteristics such as substrate and microclimate. Less is known, however, about the impacts of tree and branch turnover on epiphyte communities. To

Microbial Life Inside Posidonia Seeds: Beneficial Endophytes and Implications for Marine Plant Health

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
Seagrass Posidonia oceanica seeds host diverse bacterial and fungal endophytes with plant‐growth–promoting traits, including nitrogen fixation and hormone production. These microbes may be vertically transmitted and support seedling establishment, offering insights for marine plant conservation and biotechnological applications.
