Abstract
⺠We studied effects of exotic S. muticum on native macroalgae. ⺠We tested effects via both light and space competition at different exotic densities. ⺠Effects on native species richness are non-linear and change with exotic density. ⺠At high cover, S. muticum shaded understory macroalgae, reducing native richness. ⺠Richness was greater with low exotic cover then none, suggesting some facilitation.
