Abstract
Observations on the prairies of Posidonia oceanica (L.) Delile around the island of Ischia (Italy).—Posidonia oceanica prairies are present over a wide area around the island of Ischia. Their inferior limit of distribution is situated at depths ranging from 30 to 38 m. On average, beds range from « sparse » to « semi-prairie » conditions, and their deepest portions often show dead zones. Exposed rhyzomes, indicating strong erosive phenomena, have been recorded locally. There is evidence of a fall blooming in 1975. Data on leaf area index and distribution of leaf length according to age (juvenile, intermediate and adult) are also given.Keywords
