Limpets and Their Algal Epibionts: Costs and Benefits of Acrosiphonia spp and Ulva lactuca Growth

Table 3

Predicted maximum drag forces experienced by limpets with and without epibionts at a water velocity of 20 m/s (theoretical maximum water velocity). Forces are in Newtons.

	With Acrosiphonia	Acrosiphonia removed	With Ulva	Ulva removed
Maximum drag forces	20.46	13.16	8.61	11.09
