Variations in two biotic indices, Species Richness (S) and Shannon-Wiever (H'), obtained from macrobenthic community around a gas platform placed in the central Adriatic Sea, were analysed to evaluate Taxonomic Sufficiency effectiveness, considering three levels of biodiversity resolution: species, genus and family. No significant differences were found, taking into account both S and H' index, at all considered taxonomic levels.

Abstract

Variations in two biotic indices, Species Richness (S) and Shannon-Wiever (H'), obtained from macrobenthic community around a gas platform placed in the central Adriatic Sea, were analysed to evaluate Taxonomic Sufficiency effectiveness, considering three levels of biodiversity resolution: species, genus and family. No significant differences were found, taking into account both S and H' index, at all considered taxonomic levels.
