Concept URI http://eunis.eea.europa.eu/eunishabitats/A5.265
Preferred label Pontic upper circalittoral mud with [Spisula subtruncata] and [Aricidea claudiae]
Definition This type of habitat occurs in the Black Sea around mussel bed patches. The distinguishing species are [Aricidea claudiae] and [Spisula subtruncata]. In general the community is characterised by the extremely high abundance of polychaetes such as [Aricidea claudiae], [Melinna palmata] and [Heteromastus filiformis]. Todorova & Konsulova (2003) state that this community has equivalents to Marinov's (1990) traditional classification of the [Melinna palmata] coastal mud community.
