Effects of herbivores on a Posidonia oceanica seagrass meadow: importance of epiphytes (2005, background): “Within the depth range mentioned, 116 Tomas et al.: Importance of epiphytes in seagrass herbivory the meadow hosts a population of adult individuals (i.e. 5 to 7 cm in diameter without spines) of the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus of about 5 ind. m–2 (Romero et al. 1999, Tomas et al. 2004).”
Seasonal and small-scale spatial variability of herbivory pressure on the temperate seagrass Posidonia oceanica (2005, background): “As sea urchin populations are stable (Tomas et al. 2004), either sea urchins exhibit a strong seasonal feeding pattern (Régis 1979, Lozano et al. 1995) and/or fish bites have a masking effect on sea urchin grazing measurements.”
