We paired a survey of cryptofaunal abundance and rhodolith morphology with lipid, fatty acid, and stable isotope analyses to quantify nutritional patterns and trophic linkages of six dominant echinoderm, bivalve, gastropod, and polychaete species, two macroalgal species, seawater, and underlying sediment in a large (>500 m 2 ) rhodolith ( Lithothamnion glaciale ) bed in southeastern Newfoundland (Canada). We found high densiti...
