The aim of this study was to quantify the dominance of macrozoobenthic taxa structuring the benthic assemblages associated to 6 coastal habitats, which occur from the mesolittoral to the circalittoral zone of the Campania coast. Crustaceans, polychaetes and molluscs were the main taxonomic groups structuring all the benthic assemblages, representing an average of 89.20% of the total taxa. However, each habitat showed the dominance of only one peculiar taxon.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to quantify the dominance of macrozoobenthic taxa structuring the benthic assemblages associated to 6 coastal habitats, which occur from the mesolittoral to the circalittoral zone of the Campania coast. Crustaceans, polychaetes and molluscs were the main taxonomic groups structuring all the benthic assemblages, representing an average of 89.20% of the total taxa. However, each habitat showed the dominance of only one peculiar taxon.File in questo prodotto:
