Sažetak

A short investigation history of anchihaline (anchialine) habitats is given. In the 1950s to 1960s the Adriatic coast was particularly intensely studied in this respect. The first systematic research into anchihaline ecology was done in this area in the 1960s (published in 1986). Stability of salinity-density stratification was noted, resulting in occurrence of dysoxic-sulfidic layers. The fauna is distributed mainly within the paralittoral merodinaric zone; two paradoxical phenomena were named the 'Kvarner inversion' and the 'Hadzia inversion'.
