Rockweed, <i>Ascophyllum nodosum</i>, provides essential ecological services and recently has been subject to increasing commercial harvesting. This communication documents the associated macroinvertebrate fauna (>1.0 mm) of six characteristic rockweed shores along a 350 km gradient across the northern Gulf of Maine. Seventy-four putative taxa were identified. Numbers of species at each site ranged from 21 to 40. Arthropods, predominantly the barnacle <i>Semibalanus balanoides</i>, accounted for 70% of the individuals encountered. Densities per station ranged from 132 to 48,023 per m2. Numerical analyses demonstrated that rockweed-dominated rocky shores of the northern Gulf of Maine are characterized by nine widely distributed taxa that represent 88.6% of the individuals. These nine are <i>S. balanoides</i>, oligochaetes, the isopod <i>Jaera marina</i>, the periwinkles <i>Littorina obtusata</i> and <i>Littorina littorea</i>, nematodes, the blue mussel <i>Mytilus edulis</i>, the amphipod <i>Gammarus obtusatus</i>, and nemerteans. Seven other taxa occurred widely at low densities. Cluster analysis of sites suggests a possible faunal break in midcoast Maine.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"The Macroinvertebrate fauna of rockweed (<i>Ascophyllum nodosum</i>) dominated low-energy rocky shores of the Northern Gulf of Maine","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-06-14 01:31:40.565338","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":"Maine coast, macrofauna, biodiversity, macroalgae","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2012,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2018-02-13","DateCreate":"2017-08-09","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000299147800004","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.2112/jcoastres-d-10-00004.1"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":287821,"PubliDate":2012,"Pagination":"36-42","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"28","Issue":"1","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":43217,"SerRR":"Journal of Coastal Research.
