Hammond (1983) showed that a living species of Lingula may tolerate salinity
levels down to 16%, and up to 50%, for prolonged periods, and exposure to
levels as low as 5%, for shorter periods. At the present time the genus lives in ...

The low diversity communities, such as are found in benthic assemblages 1 and
2, can be explained by the restrictive conditions of the intertidal environment with
its wide fluctuations in temperature, salinity and exposure to the atmosphere.
