| Abstract |
Sixty-five anthozoan species were recorded and collected in the area of Telašćica Nature Park during surveys from 1999 to 2006. General and ecological data are presented for each species, as well as distribution and local abundance. The recorded species account for about 56% of the anthozoans known in the Adriatic Sea, and for about 38% of the anthozoans known in the Mediterranean Sea. From Telašćica Nature Park, 16 species are considered to be Mediterranean endemics. The heterogeneity of the substrates and benthic communities in the bay and cliffs is considerable in Telašćica Nature Park; anthozoans are present on most of the different kinds of substrates and in a wide range of benthic communities. |
