The aim of this study was to determine the zoobenthic crustaceans in northern coast of the Absheron Peninsula of the Caspian Sea. Samples were collected using a scoop net, a scraper tool and a Petersen dredge at 0.5-2.5 m depths from 23 stations in eight transects located in northern coast of the Absheron Peninsula of the Caspian Sea between 2008 and 2010. A total of 30 benthic crustacean species belonging to 6 orders were recorded during the course of this study. Amphibalanusimprovisus, Niphargoides caspius and Palaemon elegans were the dominant species during the study. Primary hydrographic conditions, such as temperature (7.3-27.0 º C), salinity (12.3-12.9 ), dissolved oxygen (4.42-7.54ml l-1) and pH (4.2-8.1) were recorded at each sampling station.
