| Abstract | From 2001 to 2003 a population of P. clavata has been studied in an area south of Leghorn, 300 m from the coast, between 26 and 32 m depth. In the summer 2003 an extended event of mortality has striken the entire population, in relation to an anomalous temperature increase. The observed relationship suggests the possibility to use P. clavata as a climatic-changes bio-indicator. |
