 * As the author of the article, I do not like the suggested hook because it does not accurately reflect the facts in the source. I have edited the sentence in the article to which the hook refers to reflect this. I would also like to include this image for DYK because it looks good as a thumbnail.

 * ALT1 ... that a single stem of the kelp species Laminaria hyperborea (pictured) may have 80,000 invertebrates associated with it?
 * ALT2 ... that a single stem of the kelp species Laminaria hyperborea (pictured) may have epiphytic red algae dangling from it and house up to 80,000 invertebrates?
 * How about the original, now that I've re-written it? I think 'benthic animals' is more specific per the source than 'invertebrates'.  Rcej (Robert) –  talk  04:44, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
