Infaunal molluscs were not considered in this study.

Furthermore, sea stars preferred smaller prey when feeding oninfaunal bivalves but preferred larger epifaunal prey when feeding on urchins and sand dollars (Gaymer et al., 2004).

Both scenarios are unlikely due to a low dispersal rate expected for a minute benthic orinfaunal organism and the problems faced in crossing a wide, deep oceanic basin as well as surviving the end-Ordovician cooling in a high-latitude climatic zone.

A taxonomic listing of benthic macro- and megainvertebrates frominfaunal and epifaunal monitoring and research programs in the Southern California Bight.

The effects of beam-trawl disturbance oninfaunal communities in different habitats.

Similarly, the moon snail (Neverita duplicate Say 1822) is an abundant generalist that inhabits shallow intertidal to subtidal habitats and feeds primarily oninfaunal bivalves.

Assessments of benthic diversity based on years of intensive sampling have also provided species inventories forinfaunal and epilithic fauna (Dunton and Schonberg, 2000) and for benthic algae (Wilce and Dunton, 2014).

Clam digging is a North American term for a common way to harvest clams (edibleinfaunal bivalve mollusks) from below the surface of the tidal sand flats or mud flats where they live.

Trol ve algarna gibi dipte suruklenerek cekilen av araclari bentik ekosistem uzerinde yarattiklari fiziksel etki sebebiyle,infaunal ve epifaunal canli komunitelerin azalmasina veya tumuyle olumune sebep olmaktadirlar.

childreni could also be categorized as mud ingesters [19] andinfaunal predators because they swallowed bulk sediment which usually comprised meio- and macrofauna [20].
