The ecological study of the Kerkennah Plateau showed 3 environmental groups : 1) those living in the Posidonia thickets 2) those in the Caulerpes and Cymodocea prairies 3) those in the sediments. There appears to be a particular molluscan stock characteristic or preferential to each of these biotopes, but overall differences appear in the unequal proportion of Gasteropods (epiphytes) to Bivalves (endopsammics). Further studies of dredged and cored sea bottom samples at several points in the Pelagian Sea extended the investigation to the deeper zones (lower infralittoral, circa littoral, and bathyal). The malacologie contents of the cores showed a previous extension of the littoral vegetal formations (prairies and thickets) far beyond their present limits the exocentric migration of these formations towards the present coast thus showed the encroachment of the sea during the Versilian transgression. At the same time the special composition of the Wurmian thanatocoenoses was settled, and underlines the biostratigraphic and palaeoclimatic value of significant species (Pseudamussium septemradiatum, Acanthocardia echinata, Calliotropis ottoi.). The presence as indicated by one of the cores (KS 128) of Arctica islandica in the Wurmian deposits of the Pelagian Sea can only suggest or hint at an answer to the question as to whether (and in what conditions) the Cyprine and the boreoceltic form that followed passed the Sicilian-Tunisian saddle during the last ice-age.
