Abstract—For the first time, the landscape approach was used to conduct a comparative analysis of the macrophytobenthic species diversity and changes in its biomass in the coastal zone of Karanskii Nature and Landscape Reserve over the period of 1964–2016. A landscape map of the submarine nearshore slope was produced, and three benthic natural complexes (BNCs) have been distinguished. The main such complex is the BNC of psephitic deposits with the predomination of Carpodesmia crinita and Treptac
