Abstract
The paper reviews data published over a long period of time about the Adriatic sessile bivalves attached to living organisms, to various substrates and objects in the sea. A total of 49 species of sessile bivalves from 22 families are recorded, mostly from the subclass Pteromorphia. Interesting examples of their settlement on various substrates and cases of settlement of other macrofaunal species on bivalve shells are discussed.
