Epibenthic predators control mobile macrofauna associated with a foundation species in a subarctic subtidal community
Abstract Foundation species (FS) are strong facilitators providing habitat for numerous dependent organisms. The communities shaped by FS are commonly structured by interplay of facilitation and consumer control. Predators or grazers often indirectly determine community structure eliminating either...
