Abstract

Coppejans, E.; Boudouresque, C.F. (1975). Sur la richesse floristique de certains peuplements photophiles infralittoraux de Port-Cros (Var, France). [On the floral richness of some infralittoral photophylic communities of Port Cros (Var, France).]. Rapp. Comm. int. Mer Médit. 23: 79-80

An account is given of the infralittoral phytobenthos (Rhodophyta, Phaeophyceae, Chlorophyceae) of Port-Cros Island (France). From 2 to 10 m depth, under calm conditions, up to 109 species were listed for each 400 cm² quadrat sample. It must be emphasised that these species numbers are considerable, and that the part played by algae in the photophilous settlements is conspicuous or even dominant.
