However,

we found

about as many significant within-species differences between censuses
made at different times on the same bench as between-species
differences within censuses. Co-occurring species thus tend not to use
microhabitat resources differentially. Physical environmental variables
including tide level, strength of water flow and time of day determine
refuging and foraging activity patterns, and all species apear to
respond similarly to these factors. The data thus do not support the
hypothesis of temporal resource partitioning. We found evidence neither
for homing, as mark-recapture results suggested that individuals occupy
any convenient refuge after foraging, nor for interference competition
for protected sites among Conus. Conus species diversity is
Significantly correlated with (1) substrate topographic diversity

measured either independently or as the diversity of microhabitats

utilized by all species together, and (2) the proportion of individuals
occupying protected sites.;
