Taxonomic and functional diversity of benthic macrofauna associated with rhodolith beds in SE Brazil
Rhodoliths are free-living and morphologically diverse marine calcareous algae commonly distributed over the continental shelf seafloor. They increase the seabed structural complexity and are of potential value as feeding and reproductive grounds for a myriad of marine fauna. The higher structural s...
