چکیده
|
Octocorals gorgonians of atlantic moroccan coast are poorly studied. despite his ecological role in marine ecosystems,the investigations about this zoological group are rare and limited to the north of the country where some species were cited. for example,eunicella gazella studer,1878 (alcyonacea: anthozoa: cnidaria) which was cited along the west african and south west european coasts (portugal) was never recording in west moroccan coast. our investigations carried on agadir bay (south west moroccan coasts). they allowed us to identify for the first time a gorgonian eunicella gazella,which was collected in 15m depth. this record expands the known geographical distribution of this octocoral gorgonian in atlantic african coasts.
