Abstract
Macroepibiosis of three species of scallops in the waters of southern Primorye
Highlights
Composition and distribution of macroepibionts on scallops Swiftopecten swiftii, Mizuhopecten yessoensis and Azumapecten farreri (Pectinidae, Bivalvia, Mollusca) are investigated in 13 shallow-water areas at southern Primorye
All epibionts were removed from scallop shells, fixed with 4 % formalin and preserved in 70 % alcohol, except algae; the algae were dried on air or frozen
The settlement density and biomass were determined for each scallop, mean values of these indices were calculated for entire sample, taking into account the scallops without epibionts, the biomass and density were recounted by a square decimetre
