Codium fragile ssp. tomentosoides

Codium fragile ssp. tomentosoides maintained its dominance in many areas of the northwest Atlantic because it is a superior competitor after disturbance events ( Scheibling and Gagnon 2006, Kelly et al. 2011). However, several studies reported greater macrofaunal and epiphyte diversity associated with C. fragile ssp. tomentosoides ( Schmidt and Scheibling 2006, 2007), which may be due to increased adaptation of the local community to this species ( Harris and Jones 2005). A single study outside the northwest Atlantic showed that C. fragile ssp. tomentosoides increased the recruitment of the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis Lamarck ( Bulleri et al. 2006) View in CoL .
