Available data on zooplakton research in Adriatic sea show that coastal and open waters of south Adriatic are the zone of most available and richest area in Adriatic sea. Shallow waters along the shore and the Boka Kotorska Bay are characterized by a monotony of faunistic content, while, by contrast, high values of biomass are caused by abundance of a small number of estuary-neritic species. Open waters of South Adriatic are characterized by holoplankton, while waters of Boka Kotorska Bay are characterized by meroplankton. Zooplankton of open sea shows a high diversity of fauna but a small biomass in part of open water above the geatest depths, and significantly high values of biomass in epipelagic waters above the continental shelf.
