Müller, U. intestinalis L., U.hookeriana (Kützing) Hayden et al., U. compressa L. and U. linza L.) were analyzed on rocky substrata experimentally immersedin Comodoro Rivadavia Harbor (Argentina). Colonization was studied during an annual period at three levels: upper intertidal,middle intertidal and subtidal. Coverage was significantly higher in the middle intertidal and subtidal levels than in the upperintertidal level, where all species of Ulva were absent.

Most species showed high spatial variability among replicates from the samelevel and season. Zonation patterns within the harbor differed from those observed in natural areas, probably due to low waveexposure and its interaction with herbivory and desiccation stress.
