Summer macroalgal biomass in Potter Cove, South Shetland Islands, Antarctica: its production and flux to the ecosystem (2008, result): “Recently, studies also showed that the amphipods Prostebbingia gracilis and Gondogeneia antarctica exhibited their highest consumption rates when grazing on the thalli of the red alga Palmaria decipiens (Huang et al. 2006).”
Habitat choice and predator avoidance by Antarctic amphipods: the roles of algal chemistry and morphology (2010, background): “In Antarctica, there is a strong inverse correlation between amphipod abundance on an alga in the field and amphipod feeding preference for that same alga measured in the laboratory (Huang et al. 2006, Huang et al. 2007).”
Life strategy, ecophysiology and ecology of seaweeds in polar waters (2007, background): “No overall correlation in feeding patterns could be established with tissue toughness or nutritional content of the algae (Amsler et al. 2005a; Peters et al. 2005) although toughness could play a role in the unpalatability of some particular macroalgal species to amphipods (Huang et al. 2006).”
Patterns of gammaridean amphipod abundance and species composition associated with dominant subtidal macroalgae from the western Antarctic Peninsula (2007, background): “menziesii (Huang et al. 2006).”
