Abstract

Marine macroalgal community structure of subtidal zones were examined at eight study sites, Jeju, Korea, from March to June 2010. A total of 182 species were identified, including 22 green, 37 brown and 123 red algae. Of them, 15 species were observed at all the study sites. Species richness of seaweeds was maximal at Seongsan with 112 species and minimal at Sinheung with 44 species. Average seaweed biomass was $735.24g\;wet\;wt.\;m^{-2}$ and ranged from $165.82g\;wet\;wt.\;m^{-2}$ at Sinheung to $1,160.43g\;wet\;wt.\;m^{-2}$ at Bomok. Articulated coralline algae were dominant occupying 27.05% ($198.92g\;wet\;wt.\;m^{-2}$) of total biomass for the eight study sites in Jeju Island. Subdominant species were Ecklonia cava and Codium coactum, comprising 26.62% ($195.72g\;wet\;wt.\;m^{-2}$) and 8.42% ($61.91g\;wet\;wt.\;m^{-2}$), respectively. Vertical distribution of subtidal seaweeds in terms of biomass showed from E. cava Colpomenia sinuosa - Codium coactum Ecklonia kurome Undaria pinnatifida - Cladophora wrightiana - Peyssonnelia capensis in the subtital zone between 5~15 m depth level.
