This is a study on the sessile species of the intertidal zone which
attempts to portray the intricate interplay of structural,
physiological and behavioural adaptations that enable one animal to
live where its congeners cannot. After outlining the physical and
biotic conditions on the shore, each of the successful littoral
groups is described in the order in which they appear, starting
with those at the highest level and progressing to the sublittoral.
Only such structures and physiological modifications are described
as are necessary to understand how they are able to live on the
shore. Aspects of propagation, dispersal, colonization and
interaction between species are discussed in relation to community
composition and distribution of animals on the shore.
