Abstract
The temperature constraint hypothesis (TCH) states that low water temperatures constrain the efficiency of algal digestion in fishes to an extent that limits the viability of herbivory. It is a widely cited explanation for the decline in diversity and abundance of marine herbivorous fishes at high latitudes. A key prediction of this hypothesis is that temperature-related physiological constraints may be ameliorated in free-living herbivores by a...
