Destruction of kelp beds by sea urchins has been documented in St. Margaret’s Bay, Nova Scotia, and also appears to be taking place in other parts of eastern Canada. Continued sea urchin settlement onto grazed areas prevents the return of kelp and other algae for long periods. Because of the large contribution of kelp beds to coastal productivity, the disappearance of kelp from large areas is alarming. Dynamics of sea urchin grazing are discussed.
