CLAM

Thoughts on the ecology and evolution of the intertidal biota of the Azores and other Atlantic islanmic nature of certain species. The importance of studies of basic ecology and genetics to inform resource management and conservation is highlighted. Future research directions are indicated, emphasizing the usefulness of Macaronesia as a model system to explore speciation in intertidal organisms.

Shell occupancy of the intertidal hermit crab , (Decapoda, Diogenidae) on São Miguel (Azores) at Caloura, . sp. shells were most frequently used. Shell selection appears to be determined by respective sizes of hermit crab and shell species. Small size-class crabs occupy more shell species than larger crabs. The smallest crab was found at Fenais da Luz occupying a small . sp., whereas the largest crab was found at Caloura inhabiting ..

A provisional classification of algal-characterised rocky shore biotopes in the Azoreslant-characterised biotopes (habitats and their associated communities). Although the Azores share some littoral and sublittoral biotopes with the Atlantic coast of mainland Europe, shores in the archipelago mostly lack the functionally important ‘leathery macrophyte’ communities of fucoids and lami
