  1. Interactions between <em>Zostera capensis</em>, <em>Callianassa kraussi</em> and <em>Upogebia africana</em>: deductions from field surveys in Langebaan Lagoon, South Africa

    Interactions between Zostera capensis, Callianassa kraussi and Upogebia africana: deductions from field surveys in Langebaan Lagoon, South Africa

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Marine Science • Authors: T Siebert GM Branch
    Callianassid sandprawns and eelgrasses have been postulated to have mutually negative effects on each other. The relationship between Callianassa kraussi and Zostera capensis was investigated in Langebaan Lagoon on the west coast of South Africa by correlative field surveys. Seven...
  2. Interactions between <em>Zostera capensis</em> and <em>Callianassa kraussi</em>: influences on community composition of eelgrass beds and sandflats

    Interactions between Zostera capensis and Callianassa kraussi: influences on community composition of eelgrass beds and sandflats

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Marine Science • Authors: T Siebert GM Branch
    Eelgrass beds have been postulated to support different faunal communities from unvegetated sandflats, in part because of the stabilisation of sediments in eelgrass beds and their destabilisation in sandflats due to bioturbation. More specifically, eelgrass beds have been hypothesised to...
