Based on aerial photographs from the area field surveys, maps of bottom relief, habitat units according to substrate type and cover of dominating biota, wave exposure, and patterns of wave dispersion and refraction were drawn. Employing underwater videocamera, 10 m-long transects chain were recorded and analized using the plotless method in order to characterize the sessile community structure. A total of 33 species compose the community. Of these, 14 species are stony corals, 5 zoanthids, 1 octocoral, 1 anemone, 10 macroalgae and 2 sea grasses. Ten ecological zones were identified, each of them dominated by one more species. The spatial distribution pattern of the zones is mainly controlled by substrate and wave energy. The few coral species found seemed to be particularly adapted to m...
