Types of traps used for mobile epifauna sampling from May to October 2014 in the Port of Gdynia: A – Chinese box trap (BT1), B – Gee’s Minnow trap (BT2), C – crab condo (HC1) and D – habitat crate (HC2)

Abundance (bar) and the number (triangle) of mobile epifauna species collected in the outer part of the Port of Gdynia in 2014 by multiple deployment (n) of baited traps (BT1 + BT2) from July to October 2014. Non-indigenous species are marked in bold.
