. The ecology of Tijuana Estuary, California : a national estuarine research reserve . 8P#* Figure Algae of the tidal pools include the greens (Enteromorpha sp., and Rhizoclonium sp.; upper left), blue-greens {Microcoleus lyngbyaceus and Schizothrix spp.) and diatoms (Gyrosigma obliquum, Trachyneis aspera; lower right). These are fed upon by small molluscs (Assiminea and Melampus; lower right). Adult flies (Ephydra, Ephydridae; upper right) and their larvae feed on algae. The water boatman (Trichocohxia reticulata, left middle) can be dense in pools. The California killifish (lower left)
