Marine fauna of Mljet National Park (Adriatic Sea, Croatia). 7. Echiura

Abstract: It seems that the only Echiuroid species present in the Mljet National Park is Bonellia viridis. This species is known world wide for its peculiar larval development and sexual dimorphism. The forked proboscis females prefer to live in shallow sublittoral crevices in large stones and similar rocky environments. Divers reported B. viridis to be a rather common marine invertebrate.

“…The recorded isopod richness in the Slovenian Sea is relatively high compared to regions of similar size elsewhere in the Adriatic (Zavodnik & Kovačić 2000;Zavodnik et al 2006). Thirty recorded species in the Slovenian Sea represent almost 40% of all species listed for the Adriatic Sea (Castelló et al 2020).…”

“…Interestingly, the use of "biotope" in the benthic mapping literature has drifted to now refer specifically to biological communities in some cases (e.g., HELCOM, 2013;Elvenes et al, 2014;Neves et al, 2014, Schiele et al, 2015, which were originally defined by Moebius (1877) as the "biocoenosis" that inhabit the abiotic "biotopes" (Dimitrakopoulos & Troumbis, 2008). Meanwhile, this original definition of "biocoenosis" is retained in many places (e.g., Zavodnik et al, 2005;Göltenboth et al, 2006;Dauvin et al, 2008a;Maiorano et al, 2011;Sloss et al, 2013). Additional detailed discussion may be found in Olenin & Ducrotoy (2006), Dauvin et al (2008a, 2008b, who called for greater clarity in the use of terminology for benthic habitat mapping.…”
