Concept: Atlantic and Mediterranean low energy circalittoral rock in the eunishabitats vocabulary

Concept URI	http://eunis.eea.europa.eu/eunishabitats/A4.3
Preferred label	Atlantic and Mediterranean low energy circalittoral rock
Definition	Occurs on wave-sheltered circalittoral bedrock and boulders subject to mainly weak/very weak tidal streams. The biotopes identified within this habitat type are often dominated by encrusting red algae, brachiopods ([Neocrania anomala]) and ascidians ([Ciona intestinalis] and [Ascidia mentula]).
