Abundance, Distribution, and Diversity of Intertidal Macro-Algal Associated with Amphipods in the Red Sea, Egypt
Ghada S. Elsebakhy et al.
Abstract:Amphipods are small aquatic herbivores feeding on seagrasses, macroalgae and small zooplanktons, which can alter the population dynamics of their hosts and the structure of benthic assemblages (Poore et al., 2008).

They are classified as one of the most diverse crustacean taxa (M… Show more
