This study examined the interaction of <i>Macoma</i> with the infaunal polychaetes <i>Arenicola marina</i> and<i> Nereis diversicolor</i> and the gastropod<i> Retusa obtusa</i>. The distribution of <i>M. balthica</i> spat on the flats, shortly after settlement in April, showed a positive correlation with the <i>Arenicola</i> distribution and a negative correlation with <i>Nereis</i>distribution. There were no locations where <i>Macoma</i>spat and <i>Retusa</i> occurred together. In August,<i> Macoma</i> spat had grown too large for predation by intertidal infauna. Small individuals of <i>Macoma</i> spat were found in stomachs of <i>Arenicola</i> (0.14 worm<sup>-1</sup>) and Nereis (0.05 worm<sup>-1</sup>). Laboratory experiments showed that <i>Nereis</i> and <i>Retusa</i> could reduce<i> Macoma</i> spat abundance, both in the absence and presence of sediment and alternative prey. <i>Arenicola</i> reduced the abundance of small <i>Macoma</i> (<1 mm) in sediment without, but not with, alternative prey. In field experiments, we manipulated the density of <i>Arenicola</i> in 0.25-1 m<sup>2</sup> plots and of Nereis in 0.03 m<sup>2</sup> cages and examined the effect on <i>Macoma</i> density several weeks later. We found a significant negative relation between densities of polychaetes and <i>Macoma</i> spat for both polychaete species in these experimental plots. Peculiarly, we found a significant positive relation between manipulated <i>Nereis</i> density and adult <i>Macoma</i> density in the cages; we cannot explain this. Consumption rates, calculated both from stomach contents and from field experiments, were 45 to 102 <i>Macoma</i> m<sup>-2 </sup><sup>d-1</sup> for <i>Arenicola</i> and 5 to 116 Macoma m<sup>-2 d-1</sup> for <i>Nereis</i>. These values are higher than recorded consumption rates by epibenthic predators in the same area. Nevertheless, between-year differences in year-class strength could not be explained by differential abundance of these polychaetes. n conclusion, <i>Arenicola</i> and <i>Nereis</i> had a negative effect on the abundance of <i>Macoma</i> <1.5 mm, which was at least partly caused by direct consumption. <i>Retusa obtusa</i> can eat juvenile<i>Macoma,</i> but probably did not so in the study area, because there were no locations where <i>Retusa</i> and <i>Macoma</i> spat occurred together in the period that <i>Macoma</i> was <2 mm.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Predation of intertidal infauna on juveniles of the bivalve <i>Macoma balthica</i>","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-04-18 01:31:13.062410","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":"<i>Macoma balthica</i>; <i>Nereis diversicolor</i>;<i> Arenicola marina</i>; Spat; Predation; Enclosure; Tidal flat; Wadden Sea; The Netherlands","Notes":null,"AnaPub":2002,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2021-02-19","DateCreate":"2002-07-22","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000175725100005","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.1016/S1385-1101(02)00107-7"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":25897,"PubliDate":2002,"Pagination":"141-159","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"47","Issue":"2","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":43261,"SerRR":"Journal of Sea Research.
