MB1-51W - Association à Cystoseira compressa

Association with Cystoseira compressa

Classification des habitats EUNIS 2022

Descriptif de l'habitat

This association is characterised by the brown alga Cystoseira compressa. Cystoseira compressa is not an indicator of either a mode or a well-determined level, since it is found, in the first meter, in both areas with strong wave action at mid-wave level and in sheltered areas. In the eastern Mediterranean, it is met, with Sargassum vulgare and Palisada perforata, at the outside edges of the vermetid platforms where Dendropoma cristatum forms kinds of pads.
