Abstract

The analysis of the molluscan shells deposition on the sea side of land strips of the lagoon complex of the NW Amvrakikos Gulf shows that bivalve (61.10%) and gasteropod (12.48%) shells constitute the major share of the organogenic material of the sea side land strips. Major representative bivalve species are Cerastoderma glaucum (35.32%) and Polititapes aureus (17.89%), while a range of other species, such as Loripes orbiculatus (4.06%), Mytilus galloprovincialis (2.76%), Peronidia albicans (2.66%), Chamelea gallina (1.80%), Modiolus barbatus (1.03%), Parvicardium exiguum (1.00%) were also present.
