摘要

The fauna associated with hard bottom mussel beds along the exposed Pacific coast of Chile was examined.The abundance of adult (>10 mm body length)purple musels Perumytilus purpuratus varied between 32 and 75 individuals per 50 cm~2,and their biomass between 4.8 and 8.6 g AFDW per 50 cm~2 at eight sampling sites between Arica and Chiloe.At all sampling sites,the associated fauna was dominated by suspension-feeding organisms followed by grazing peracarids and gastropods.Predators and scavengers also reached high abundances while deposit-and detritus-feeding organisms were of minor importance.The majority of organisms associated wiht these hard bottom mussel beds feed on resources obtained from the water column or growing on the mussels rather than on materials deposited with mussel beds on soft bottoms,which comprises many species feeding on material accumulated by mussels and deposited within the mussels bed.Many of the organisms dwelling between mussels bot on hard bottoms and on soft bottoms have direct development,but organisms with pelagic development also occur abundantly within mussel beds.We propose tat species with direct development are disproportionately favoured by the structurally complex habitat with diverse inerstitial spaces between the mussels,which provides ample shelter for small organisms.We conclude that mussels on hard-bottoms primarily porvide substratumfor associated fauna while mussels on soft bottoms provide both substratum and food resources.
