Sažetak
The Pantana area is situated in the western part of the Kaštela Bay occupying an area of several square kilometers. Here, under the influence of the slightly saline spring water and tidal movements a specific marsh and halophytic vegetation is developed. Based on the phytosociological and syntaxonomic research, for the Pantana area 6 plant associations have been determined: Limonio- Artemisietum coerulescentis H-ić 1934 Salsoletum sodae Pignatti 1953, Juncetum maritimo-acuti H-ić 1934, Ruppietum maritimae Br.-Bl. 1931 Phragmitetum australis (W.Koch 1926) Schmale 1939 and Bolboschoenetum maritimi Br.-Bl. 1931. These plant associations are distributed in a mosaic manner, in conformity with the equally mosaic distribution of major ecological factors (water depth and salinity, high and low tide, soil texture). A total of 42 plant species has been registered. The Pantana area is under a strong anthropogenetic impact which lately has become even stronger. Therefore, this research has to show both the great biodiversity of this area and the necessity to take certain protective measures in it.
