Data were collected in situ by using visual census. A total of nineteen fish species were recorded inside the caves. The species richness generally displayed a similar pattern in all three caves, decreasing from the entrance towards the innermost sections, whereas the patterns of total fish abundance differed among caves.<i>Apogon imberbis</i> (mainly represented by juveniles) was the most important species in terms of number of individuals (accounting for more than 85% of the censused fish) and showed a fairly even distribution inside the investigated caves. Without the numerical contribution of <i>A. imberbis</i>, fish abundance decreased from the entrance to the inner sections and this pattern was common to all three caves. Juvenile fishes of economic interest (e. g.,<i>Diplodus vulgaris</i> and<i>Epinephelus marginatus</i>) were also recorded inside. The present study suggests that: (1) environmental constraints could affect distribution patterns in fish species richness and in the abundance of several fish along the axis of \"blind caves\" (with a single entrance), as already observed for sessile benthos and plankton assemblages; (2) shallow marine caves of the Salento Peninsula could exert the role of refuge and/or nursery for some littoral fish species during the adult and/or juvenile stages of their life histories.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Fish assemblages in shallow marine caves of the Salento Peninsula (Southern Apulia, SE Italy)","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2025-07-02 08:58:19.190595","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":"Marine caves; fish fauna; visual census; Salento Peninsula;Mediterranean Sea","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2002,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2018-05-17","DateCreate":"2005-08-02","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000208309200004","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.1111/j.1439-0485.2002.tb00004.x"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":75129,"PubliDate":2002,"Pagination":"11-20","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"23","Issue":"Suppl. 1","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":43355,"SerRR":"Marine Ecology (Berlin).
