Based on long-term observations in the northwestern part of the Black Sea, the work discusses the suitability of changes in performances of macrozoobenthonic communities as the indices of well-being or deterioration of the marine environment. In particular, there is considered the value in respect of this of such criteria as: (1) indicator species; (2) indicator groupings; (3) quantitative and structural changes in Mytilus galoprovincialis biocenosis, and (4) quantitative and taxonomic modifications among representatives of Polychaeta.
