I am working on fish-algae interactions in rocky shores and I've found
bibliography regarding fish herbivory in rocky shores quite scarse comparing
to coral reef herbivory.
My question is: Does fish herbivory affect vertical distribution of
macroalgae species in tropical rocky shores? Is there any other research
about herbivorous fishes in rocky shore habitat being carried out?

Thanks in advance,
