Laminaria has been removed from the species list for this record as more specific related taxa were also present, these are now marked as characterising. Well developed lichen community dominated by Verrucaria maura. Pelvetia canaliculata dominant algae with Fucus spiralis and Fucus serratus also abundant. Ascophyllum nodosum and Fucus vesiculosis abundant in local distributions. Well developed Rhodophyceae community only abundant in local distributions as are littorinids, Gibbula umbilicalis, Gammerus spp. and Echinogammerus spp. Balanus balanoides abundant with some Chthamalus stellatus, Patella vulgata abundant, also present Patella aspera. Mytilus edulis abundant only in local distribution. Laminara digitata and Laminaria hyperborea dominate the sublittoral. Abundance scale by Crapp (1973). NOTE: Substratum % data are converted from the original substratum 1-3 scoring system. |
