Abstract:The Mediterranean stony coral Cladocora caespitosa (Linnaeus, 1767) is a native colonial, zooxanthellate, shallow water coral, particularly sensitive to global changes and anthropogenic activities. Due to its shape and size, it is able to host a diversifi ed faunal assemblage, which is still relatively unknown. A recently discovered bank of C. caespitosa, discovered close to Cape Ronek (Gulf of Trieste, Slovenia), was investigated in November 2010. Altogether 121 invertebrate taxa, belonging to 9 different phyla were found. Taxa composition in colonies differed markedly from the surrounding areas within the bank. Only 5 taxa (4 % of the total) were found both within and without C. caespitosa colonies. Our results confi rm the role of C. caespitosa as a habitat builder and indicate the importance of the studied bank for biodiversity

Title:Macrofauna associata ad un banco di Cladocora caespitosa (Anthozoa, Scleractinia) nel Golfo di Trieste (Adriatico settentrionale)
Abstract:La madrepora a cuscino (Cladocora caespitosa, Linneus, 1767) è un corallo madreporario di acque poco profonde, sensibile ai cambiamenti climatici ed alle attività antropiche. Grazie alla sua struttura e alle dimensioni, questo madreporario è in grado di ospitare una comunità faunistica molto diversifi cata. Un banco di C. caespitosa, scoperto recentemente vicino a Capo Ronco (Golfo di Trieste, Slovenia), è stato studiato nel novembre 2010. In totale sono stati trovati 121 taxa di invertebrati, appartenenti a 9 diversi phyla. La composizione faunistica all’interno delle colonie differiva notevolmente da quella della zona circostante sul banco. Solo 5 taxa (4 % del totale) sono stati trovati sia all’interno che nei pressi delle colonie. I nostri risultati confermano il ruolo di C. caespitosa come biocostruttore e pongono l’accento sull’importanza del banco oggetto di studio per la biodiversità.
