Abstract

The distribution and abundance of the orange stony coral Astroides calycularis in Italian waters was defined using data from different sources: literature, personal observations and questionnaires compiled by taxonomists, researchers, divers and amateur naturalists. These data provide the basis for further studies on the impact of human activities on this species and for its conservation.
