Composition of fish communities in macrotidal salt marshes of the Mont Saint-Michel bay (France) [PDF]

, 2000
At least 100 fish species are known to be present in the intertidal areas (estuaries, mudflats and salt marshes) of Mont Saint-Michel Bay. These and other comparable shallow marine coastal waters, such as estuaries and lagoons, play a nursery role for ...
