Temporal and spatial variation of the algal community in a southern Mediterranean shallow system

2010

The algal community of a shallow system located in Western Sicily (Mediterranean Sea) has been investigated over 1 year in eight ponds (fredde). The spatio-temporal variation in total algal coverage, species richness and coverage in relation to environmental variables has been analysed. The algal community was very species-poor. A total of 50 taxa, mainly detached algae, were identified. A dominance of filamentous and foliose taxa was observed. Significant spatio-temporal differences in total algal coverage, species richness and coverage between the ponds of group A and those of group B were found. The separation into groups A and B was made a priori on the basis of different levels of prox…

Spreading of the alien seagrass Halophila stipulacea (Hydrocharitaceae) along the sicilian coast (western Mediterranean Sea)

2009

Halophila stipulacea (Forsskål) Ascherson is a tropical seagrass distributed along the western coasts of the Indian Ocean and in the Red Sea (den Hartog, 1977). This species was previously considered a paleomediterranean element, survived as a relict in the eastern Mediterranean Sea, but later on Por (1971) hypothesized that it was a Lessepsian immigrant entered the Mediterranean Sea after the opening of the Suez Canal (1869). H. stipulacea remained in the eastern Mediterranean for several decades (Lipkin, 1975), and only recently it spreads towards the western basin through Malta and the Ionian coast of Sicily (Lanfranco, 1970; Van der Velte and Den Hartog, 1989; Alongi et al., 1993). The …

The results of the investigations on lignicolous fungi of Sicily pointed out the presence of 282 taxa, 244 of which are Basidiomycetes and 38 Ascomycetes. In the paper the ecological and distributional data of fifteen infrequent and/or rare lignicolous fungi are reported.
