This dataset contains the results from surveys of epiphyte fauna from 3 sites along the Perth metropolitan coastline, Western Australia. Samples from Warnbro, Shoalwater and Marmion were collected in September 1993. All sites had the seagrasses Posidonia sinuosa and Amphibolis griffithii within 10 m of each other, and in depths of between 3 m and 6 m. At each site the species abundance and biomass of grazers and epifaunal groups, particularly molluscs and crustaceans were determined. This was to assess their suitability as indicator species in monitoring programs.
