Abstract

The structure of benthic algal flora and feeding behavior of sea urchins (Anthocidaris crassispina and Hemicentrotus pulcherrimus), were investigated from the eight different locations along the coast of Cheju Island, Korea. Biomass distribution and dominance of the algal communities were studied in relation to the gut contents and population parameters of the sea urchins. As a result, although the largest algal biomass and biological characteristics of sea urchins, such as test diameter, test hight, body weight, gonad weight, etc. This inhdicated that sea urchins would not be dependednt sorely on the abundance of algal foods, and they might feed on other food items. In order to know such a trend with regard to food selectivity, the diets consumed by sea urchins were analyzed, and it was found that they were composed of benthic and drifted algae, various animal components (sponges, bryozoans, crustaceans, and various unidentified capsulated eggs, etc.) and biets turned out to be smaller than might be expected, and it is postulated that sea urchins were not likely to be the major grazing animals for the formation of algal bed and also canopy deterioration, so-called "white incrustation."

제주도의 8개지점(함덕, 온평, 위미, 법환, 화순, 대포, 한림, 외도)에서 해조장형성과 조식성의 대표적이 동물인 성게류(보라성게,Anthocidaris crassispina와 말똥성게 Hemicentrotus pulcherrimus)의 섭이형태에 대하여 연구하였다. 각 조사지점의 해조류 생체량이 조사되었으며, 성게류의 장내용물과 생물학적 측정치에 관련된 해조류 군락의 양적분포와 우점도가 조사되었다. 결론적으로 대포지점의 조사지점이 해조상으로는 가장 우세함에도 불구하고 성게의 생물학적인 특성인 체고, 체장, 체중 그리고 생식소 지수와의 관련이 없었다. 이는 성게류들이 조류의 풍도에만 의존하는 곳이 아니고 다른 먹이물질을 섭이함을 뜻한다. 성게의 음식물 선호도를 위해 섭이된 장내용물을 조사한 결과 부착성 조류와 유조(drifted algae) 및 다양한 동물들 (해면, 태충류, 갑각류 및 미확인된 캡슐에 싸인 알 등)과 펄이나 모래와 같은 저질들이 먹이물질로 조사되었다. 섭이된 음식물의 상대적인 양으로 볼 때, 해조류의 섭식률은 낮은 것으로 밝혀졌으며, 이로서 성게가 조장형성이나 갯녹음 현상을 일으키는 해조류의 우요 섭식자가 아닐 것으로 추정할 수 있다.
