Abstract

Koralji su radijalno simetrijske životinje jednostavne građe. Isključivo su morske životinje i svi su sesilni. Stvaraju velike koraljne grebene koji čine jedan od najraznolikijih i najbogatijih ekosustava na svijetu. U ovom radu izloženi su opća obilježja koralja i koraljnih grebena, s naglaskom na njihovu ugroženost i zaštitu. Koraljni grebeni predstavljaju optimalan tip staništa za 25% svih morskih vrsta te se njihovim uništavanjem smanjuje bogatstvo i broj podvodnih zajednica.

Abstract (english)

Corals are radially symmetrical animals with simple structure. They are mainly sea animals and they all are sessile. They create large coral reefs that are one of the most diverse and richest ecosystems in the world. This paper presents the general characteristics of corals and coral reefs, with emphasis on their vulnerability and protection. Coral reefs are an optimalhabitatfor25% of all marine species and their destruction decreases the richness and number of underwater communities.
