Özet
This study investigated the horizontal distribution and abundance of copepod species Temora stylifera (Dana, 1849), Temoropia mayumbaensis T. Scott, 1894, Temora longicornis (0.F. Miller, 1792) and Temorites brevis G.O. Sars, 1785 in the surface water of the southeastern Adriatic Sea during 2008. For the first time, the species T longicornis was registered in high abundance in the southeastern Adriatic Sea in the zone of hydrological discontinuity. The species belongs to the group of copepods that are dominant in the North Adriatic Sea. The deep-sea species T mayumbaensis is just present in deep waters of the South Adriatic Pit. The presence of T. stylifera was constant in the plankton community of the studied area, whereas T brevis was registered intermittently in individual samples.
