Abstract
⺠Multi-scale spatial variability in the development of subtidal sessile assemblages was examined in southwest Australia. ⺠Variability in assemblage structure between locations 100 s of kilometers apart was extreme. ⺠Panel assemblages at one of the locations comprised a single macrofaunal species after 14 months. ⺠Feeding by demersal fish and low influx of dispersal particles were most likely explanations.
