Thirty-eight species of seaweed and seagrass was sampled, but Ulva spp. was dominant occupying % in biomass of all samples. Ulva spp. was sampled most abundantly at the stations shallower than 5 m, and it was indicated that sea bottom with a gentle slope, and located offshore of sandy beaches or tidal-flats offers a suitable condition for Ulva growth. Key words: biomass, green tide, Hiroshima Bay, trawl net, Ulva spp.
