There is little information on the faunal communities in seagrass beds of Asia, despite that its seagrass species diversity is the highest in the world. We examined spatial variation in the community structure of seagrass-associated benthic macroinvertebrates collected by sediment coring in 2010 at six seagrass sites of Japan covering the latitudinal range of 24° to 43°N. Although species richness at the site level did not vary with latitude, at core level (of 0.02 m2 area) it showed otherwise. The macrofaunal abundance also has clear site latitudinal cline which increased towards…
