	Biological review and distribution of mnemiopsis leidyi in the azov and black sea basin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The Azov Sea reminds estuary bays of the North-American Atlantic coast (the native habitat of ctenophore) in certain environmental, geographical and biological characteristics.
		For this reason in certain years the area of ctenophore occurrence in June is limited by the southern part of the Azov Sea and small areas in the south-eastern and central regions, and in others cover the eastern half of the water body.
		Judging by the total amount of young animals, the rate of ctenophore reproduction in the Azov Sea is the highest in summer months; for the Taganrog Bay it is end of summer and early autumn, as Mnemiopsis appears here later than in the sea proper and zooplankton it preys on is quite plentiful.
