Sabellaria has been known to exist in Scotland for a while, but the significance of classifying it as a \u2018reef\u2019 is that it gains protection under the Habitats Directive and under OSPAR. As well as confirming the presence of Sabellaria reef habitats, the study uncovered a new subtype of Sabellaria reef off the east coast of Aberdeenshire.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ESabellaria spinulosa is a tube-dwelling marine polychaete, which can form extensive biogenic reef habitats. The species favours turbid waters with a good supply of sand and has a tendency to co-occur with areas proposed for the development of offshore wind. Indeed, benthic surveys by developers to inform the location of offshore wind farms off the Scottish east coast first revealed the occurrence of Sabellaria habitats, with reef-like qualities. This study assessed video and digital stills data from five sites off the Aberdeenshire coast against existing \u2018reefiness\u2019 criteria. Four of the five sites were found to support significant areas of reef, with the best examples being located at the Rattray Head and Southern Trench study sites. A new and unique S. spinulosa reef habitat sub-type was identified at the fifth site. The new sub-type was termed Sabellaria \u2018bommies\u2019, due to its tendency for the species to aggregate in isolated clumps on cobbles and boulders, and act as a diverse, well-developed reef community in an otherwise fairly featureless soft bottom habitat. Recommendations regarding the conservation and management of Sabellaria reefs in Scotland are proposed to ensure it is protected while facilitating the development of the offshore energy sector.\u003C\/p\u003E\n","url":"https:\/\/data.marine.gov.scot\/dataset\/status-sabellaria-spinulosa-reef-moray-firth-and-aberdeenshire-coasts-and-guidance","state":"Active","private":true,"revision_timestamp":"Wed, 09\/23\/2020 -
