| Summary: | Abstract. Burgas Bay is the largest one on the Bulgarian Black Sea coast. Industrial plants along the coast as well as ports for liquid and solid cargoes create
conditions of anthropogenic pressure on hydrobionts in that area. Macrozoobenthos and phytoplankton samples were collected under a specific scheme in
connection with the construction of the Burgas-Alexandroupolis oil pipeline, at stations located around the designated places for unloading tankers. During the
study period (2009 – 2010), 88 phytoplankton species distributed in 13 classes were identified and over 50 species of benthic species distributed in four main
groups: Polychaeta, Mollusca, Crustacea and the mixed group Diversa |
