Intra-anual variability of Bivalvia assemblages in the transitional community of detritc bottoms of the northern Adriatic Sea

Present study is a part of comprehensive investigation of the soft bottom benthic communities in the northern Adriatic circalittoral zone. The goal of this study was to estimate intraanual dynamics of Bivalvia assemblages in the transitional community of detritc bottoms. Bivalvia assemblages structure was determined by the presence of 58 species, dominance of Nucula nitidosa, Phaxas pellucidus, Tellina distorta, Thyasira flexuosa, Kurtiella bidentata, and diversity ranged 19-31 species or 3, 37-4, 13 bits./ind. The results indicated abundant, diverse and stable community.
