| Definition | Overhanging bedrock on the lower shore characterised by shade-tolerant red algae (such as Lomentaria articulata, Plumaria elegans and Membranoptera alata) and sponges (e.g. Grantia compressa, Halichondria panicea and Hymeniacidon perleve). The rock surfaces often support dense populations of calcareous tube-worms Spirorbis spp. and Pomatoceros triqueter. In the south and west the barnacle Balanus perforatus may occur at high densities. The anemone Actinia equina thrives in the permanently damp conditions. | |
