An Account of Our Knowledge of the Amphipod Fauna of the Black Sea

Abstract

In this study, a checklist is given of the Amphipoda known from the Black Sea up to the present (88 species). For compiling this list, we reviewed all available records of Amphipoda in the Black Sea. In addition, the benthos samples resulting from surveys carried out at the Black Sea coasts of Turkey from the 1980s until now were reviewed, and some additions to the list were made. © 2007 Koninklijke Brill NV.
