Abstract
Based on literature data, the list of coastal and marine species present in the Capo Carbonara
Marine Protected Area was updated highlighting the species of special conservation interest. Overall, 951
species were recorded, 153 of them are listed in the main international conventions and directives; 49 are
protected according to the SPA/BIO protocol (Barcelona Convention). Such a high number of species of
conservation interest makes the Capo Carbonara MPA an eligible candidate to be part of the SPAMI list.
