algivore (plural algivores)
- An organism that consumes algae.
- 2017, William John Matthews, Stream Fish Community Dynamics: A Critical Synthesis:
- The fewest algivores occurred in April 1983, only months after a devastating flood. But after that, numbers of algivores went up dramatically in summer 1983 and were relatively high in winter 1994, spring 1995, and again in summer 2012.
