Bivalve mollusk Anadara kagoshimensis is classified among the top 100 dangerous invasive species of the Mediterranean and Black seas. Using as an example the colonization by Anadara of the Kazachya (Cossack) Bay (Crimea, the Black Sea), the article identifies and discusses biocenotic relations of the mollusk with sea bottom substrates, epibionts, potential environmental competitors, and predator Rapana venosa. Relations of A. kagoshimensis to the complex of phytoepibionts and zooepibionts are pr
