• GLOBAL ECOLOGY OF THE GIANT KELP MACROCYSTIS : FROM ECOTYPES TO ECOSYSTEMS (2007, background): “In Chile, Tetrapygus niger and Loxechinus albus can catch drift in Macrocystis forests (Castilla 1985, Rodriguez 2003) but to a lesser extent than Strongylocentrotus franciscanus or S. purpuratus in the northeast Pacific (Harrold & Reed 1985, Harrold & Pearse 1987).”

• The humboldt current system of northern and central chile : Oceanographic processes, ecological interactions and socioeconomic feedback (2007, background): “Arrival of kelp in the intertidal zone of northerncentral Chile continues throughout the year, but highest quantities arrive from late spring until early autumn, also depending on the proximity to source habitats (Rodríguez 2003).”
• Production and fate of kelp detritus (2012, unknown): “Invertebrate grazers on rocky shores may depend more on imported kelp detritus than intertidal microand macroalgae (Bustamante et al. 1995, Rodriguez 2003).”
• Hurricane-mediated defoliation of kelp beds and pulsed delivery of kelp detritus to offshore sedimentary habitats (2012, background): “In the Chilean intertidal zone, sea ur - chins preferentially feed on drift kelp, which enables them to develop even larger gonads than sea urchins that feed only on attached kelp (Rodriguez 2003).”
• Introduced and cryptogenic marine and estuarine species of South Africa (2011, background): “It is a well-known ecosystem engineer that is both an economic and ecological pest in its areas of origin, because of its grazing impact upon species of kelp (Vasquez and Santelices 1990 ; Vasquez and Buschmann 1997 ; Rodriguez 2003 ; Vega et al.”
