Zostera noltii is a species of seagrass found in shallow coastal waters, primarily in the Mediterranean Sea and Atlantic Ocean. It plays a crucial role in marine ecosystems by providing habitat and food for various marine organisms, including fish and invertebrates. This seagrass can grow in sandy or muddy substrates and is adapted to tolerate changes in salinity and water levels. Zostera noltii is known for its narrow, ribbon-like leaves that can reach lengths of up to 30 centimeters. It reproduces both sexually, through flowering and seed production, and asexually, by rhizome growth. This adaptability allows it to thrive in different environmental conditions, contributing to coastal stability and water quality.
