Fifty years from the publication of the first two papers on Chilean rocky intertidal assemblages: Honoring Professor Eric R. Guiler

In this paper I review and honor the scientific rocky intertidal findings made by the Australian investigator Professor Eric R. Guiler, who visited Chile in 1955. He pioneered this line of research in the country and published the first two papers on the Chilean rocky intertidal biotic zonation for...
