The sciaphilous infralitoral algal communities in relatively quiet enviroments of the levantine coast of Spain (Mediterranean), are Studied. Bionomical and structural parameters, based in the covering (vertical projection) for each species, are analized. The Fluctuations of this parameters in relation with depth are shown. Globaly, the community present a composition and structure typical of the Western Mediterranean. However, the distribution in the depth gradient of the species quantitatively more representatives suggests the existence of a zonation in the sciaphilous infralittoral communities.... [Leer más...]
