| Abstract | The community structure of caprellids inhabiting 3 species of seagrasses was investigated at 6 stations of the sublittoral zone of Otsuchi Bay, northeastern Japan. Ten species of Caprella were collected from 5 stations, while no caprellids were collected from the estuary station where the salinity was 6.8 to 26.4 (PSU). The community structure of caprellids can be separated into two groups; Caprella japonica was strongly associated with Phyllospadix iwatensis which is distributed on rocky outcrops, while C. tsugarensis was with Zostera marina and Z. caulescens near the inner most part of the bay. |
