Sharks keep a seagrass ecosystem healthy and able to respond to stresses. When seagrass is damaged, sharks assist recovery by reducing herbivory and allowing maintenance of goods and benefits.

Halophila ovalis has separate male and female plants. After fertilisation, round small fruits are formed. As Halophila ovalis exhibits significant morphological plasticity, the broader group of species and subspecies are often described as Halophila ovalis 'complex'.

The seagrass meadows at Yule Point (Far North Qld, Australia) are located on naturally dynamic intertidal sand banks, and are an important dugong feeding ground.
Dugongs eat approx 28-40kg (wet weight) of seagrass per day.
