Sažetak
Sixty-five Anthozoan species were recorded and collected in the area of “ Telašćica” Nature Park during surveys from 1999 to 2006. General and ecological data are presented for each species, as well as distribution and local abundance. Recorded species account for about 56% of Anthozoans known in the Adriatic Sea, and for about 38% of Anthozoans known in the Mediterranean Sea. From “ Telašćica” Nature Park 16 species are considered to be Mediterranean endemics. Heterogenity of substrates and benthic communities in the bay and cliffs is considerable in the “ Telašćica” Nature Park, with Anthozoans present on most different kinds of substrates and in a wide range of benthic communities.
