Variazioni spazio-temporali della fauna ittica nelle pozze di scogliera del litorale di Budoni (Sardegna Nord Orientale) = Spatio-temporal variations of ichthyofauna in the tidal rockpools from the Coast of Budoni (North Eastern Sardinia)

Fish fauna of tidal pools was investigated in a coastal district of Sardinia (central western Mediterranean) between October 2007 and October 2008. Overall, 206 specimens from 7 species belonging to 5 families were recorded in two groups of tidal pools with a different coastal exposure. Significant differences in the number of individuals were detected for tidal pools differently exposed, while number of species, number of individuals, and biomass were significantly different among the sampling periods.
