Abstract

This study was carried out to study on the diversity and species structure of corals in 6 and 7 years old artificially made substrates in Bahrekan coastal water in the Northwest of the PERSIAN GULF. Seasonalsampling from 4 stations was done by SCUBA diving from May 2009 to February 2010. The samples were randomly obtained by using quadrates of 0.25m. During the studied period, 8 species of soft coral and only one hard coral were recorded. Also soft corals, mainlyPlumarella sp.accounted up to 90 percent of the total living coverage in the artificial reef. Two type of artificial reefs (old and young) showed differences in the species composition.Anthomasthus sp.had the highest PERCENTAGE COVERAGE at the old site, while Plumarella sp.was the dominant species in the other sites.These differences may be due to the variations in size, profile, position and age between them.
