Abstract

Smeđa alga Fucus virsoides J. Agardh je jedina vrsta roda Fucus koja se pojavljuje u Sredozemnom moru i endem je Jadranskog mora. Raste isključivo na stjenovitom supstratu i duž mediolitoralne stepenice izgrađuje gusta naselja. U sjevernom Jadranu zadnjih nekoliko desetljeća zabilježena je regresija ove vrste sa više područja. Cilj ovog rada bio je kartiranje naselja smeđe alge F. virsoides u području plime i oseke južne obale Istre. Istraživanje je provedeno u ljeto 2010. godine duž cijele obale, od autokampa Stoja u Puli do mjesta Ližnjana. Naselja vrste F. virsoides zabilježena su na devet lokacija, a na šest je provedeno uzorkovanje. Morfometrija fukusa napravljena je na osnovi slijedećih parametara: broj jedinki, mokra i suha biomasa, visina steljke, promjer bazalne pločice i broj ramifikacija. Broj jedinki i biomasa jadranskog bračića analizirani su univarijatnim i multivarijatnim metodama u odnosu na okolišne čimbenike: izloženosti obale i tip supstrata. Također je analiziran i ostatak flore i faune unutar zajednice fukusa.

Abstract (english)

Brown algae Fucus virsoides J. Agardh is the only species from genus Fucus which appears in Mediterranean Sea and is endemic for Adriatic Sea. It grows exclusively on rocky bottoms and builds dense settlements along the mediolittoral belt. Over the last few decades its regression from several places in the Northern Adriatic has been recorded. The objective of this research was mapping of F. virsoides along the mediolittoral belt of the southern Istrian coast. The research took place in summer 2010 along the entire coast, from auto-camp Stoja in Pula to Ližnjan. Settlements of algae F. virsoides were recorded on nine locations, but samples were taken only from six. The morphology of Fucus was described with following variables: number of individuals, wet and dry biomass, thalli length, diameter of the basal plate and number of ramifications. The number of individuals and biomass were analysed with univariate and multivariate methods. The rest of flora and fauna inside the fucus settlements was also analysed.
