Description:
Se presenta una caracterización de la variación espacial y temporal de las macroalgas del mesolitoral rocoso del sector
Aguadores-Baconao, determinándose 47 especies, 33 géneros y 16 familias. Del total de especies, 19 pertenecen a
Rhodophyta, 11 a Heterokontophyta y 17 a Chlorophyta; consignándose por primera vez las especies Amphiroa beauvoisii,
Centroceras clavulatum, Ceramiun brasiliense, Yuzurua poiteaui, Ceratodictyon intricatum, Gracilaria damaecornis, Laurencia
obtusa, Polysiphonia scopulorum, P. sphaerocarpa, Dictyota ciliolata, Anandyomene saldanhae, Chaetomorpha gracilis y
Dictyosphaeria ocellata para la plataforma suroriental. Los valores más elevados de riqueza específica se obtuvieron en marzo
(35). La composición varía entre los meses (55% de disimilitud) y localidades (30 - 100% de disimilitud). Estas variaciones
responden a las características del microhábitat y la presencia de fuentes puntuales de enriquecimiento con nutrientes.
Description:
A characterization of spatial and temporal variation of macroalgae assemblages in the intertidal rocky shore sector
Aguadores-Baconao is presented. As a result of this study 47 species were determined, 33 genera and 16 families. 19 species
belong to Rhodophyta, 17 to Heterokontophyta and 11 to Chlorophyta. Species like Amphiroa beauvoisii, Centroceras
clavulatum, Ceramiun brasiliense, Yuzurua poiteaui, Ceratodictyon intricatum, Gracilaria damaecornis, Laurencia obtusa,
Polysiphonia scopulorum, P. sphaerocarpa, Dictyota ciliolata, Anadyomene saldanhae, Chaetomorpha gracilis y Dictyosphaeria
ocellata were first recorded in the southeast platform of Cuba. The higher values of species richness were obtained in March
(35). The composition of macroalgae varies among months (55% of dissimilarity) and locations (30 to 100% of dissimilarity).
These variations respond to the features of the characteristics of the microhabitat and the presence of point pollution sources
for nutrient enrichment.
