Rhodoliths as environmental archives in the tropics
Rhodoliths are free-living forms of calcareous, coralline red algae that are found worldwide, from the tropics to the poles, in relatively shallow (0->250m) waters. They can live hundreds of years and continuously form a high-Mg calcite skeleton that presents periodical growth bands. Recent …

Remotely operated vehicle exploring ichthyofauna association with habitat from shore-shelf, in an endemism hotspot in South Africa
… cristiceps). Habitat types, including rhodolith beds, sponges, and deep-water corals were documented. Maximum predicted fish diversity corresponded with mid-continental shelf, which is incorporated into the regions proposed MPA. The highest fish diversity was 10km within the shelf edge …

Patterns and potential environmental drivers of mesophotic communities of the warm temperate shelf of the Amathole Region, South Africa
… upper and lower mesophotic zone in this region. Rhodolith bed communities were discovered in the upper mesophotic and are a welcomed novel ecosystem type for South African benthic ecologists. The upper mesophotic zone was also characterised by communities of dense brittle star aggregations and …

Growth Characterization of Mesophotic Rhodoliths in the Northern Gulf of Mexico Using Radiocarbon Dating
Boxwork rhodoliths are characterized by a multitaxonomic composition and excessive void spaces, and they are distributed from the intertidal zone to the lower limits of the photic zone. While growth rates and patterns in rhodoliths from shallower depths and simpler morphologies have been assessed …
