Three types of mesh bags with different mesh size (2, 0.5, and 0.01&nbsp;mm) were used to analyze the mass loss and chemical composition changes of the litter and their relationship with benthic fauna communities. The results indicated that benthic fauna contributed 14.83%–16.69% of the mass loss of <i>S</i>. <i>fusiforme</i> litter. Furthermore, benthic fauna facilitated the reduction of biochemical substances such as carbon, phosphorus, cellulose, and hemicellulose in the litter. A significant negative correlation was found between the number of taxonomic classes and the carbon and phosphorus content (<i>p</i>&nbsp;&lt;&nbsp;0.05), while the abundance of benthic fauna showed a significant negative correlation with carbon, phosphorus, lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose content (<i>p</i>&nbsp;&lt;&nbsp;0.05). The number of taxonomic classes and abundance in the 2&nbsp;mm mesh bags were also greater than those in the 0.5&nbsp;mm bags. In conclusion, benthic fauna played a promotive role in the decomposition process of <i>S</i>. <i>fusiforme</i> litter, providing valuable insights into the natural decomposition mechanisms of large seaweed.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Role of benthic fauna in the decomposition of <i>Sargassum fusiforme</i> litter","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-07-25 01:58:07.467819","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2025,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2025-07-02","DateCreate":"2025-07-02","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":null,"VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.1016/j.marenvres.2025.107010"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":409305,"PubliDate":2025,"Pagination":"107010","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"205","Issue":null,"BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":43357,"SerRR":"Marine Environmental Research.
