The northern and southern areas of the Enfola istmus (Elba Island) are analyzed to evaluate the biodiversity and conservation status of sea environment. A high level of biodiversity is present, in particular in southern coast, above all in regard to Gastropods and Polychaetes community. The study puts in evidence in both the areas the presence of a wide, well preserved Posidonia oceanica meadow and numerous specimens of Pinna nobilis, mainly juvenile in the southern area of the istmus.

Abstract
The northern and southern areas of the Enfola istmus (Elba Island) are analyzed to evaluate the biodiversity and conservation status of sea environment. A high level of biodiversity is present, in particular in southern coast, above all in regard to Gastropods and Polychaetes community. The study puts in evidence in both the areas the presence of a wide, well preserved Posidonia oceanica meadow and numerous specimens of Pinna nobilis, mainly juvenile in the southern area of the istmus.
