Abstract—
Meiobenthic samples collected on the Côn Đảo archipelago (Vietnam) from two biotopes, in mangroves and on the adjacent reef flat areas, are analyzed. Quantitative characteristics of the dominant groups of meiobenthos are presented, and taxonomic composition of dominant taxa, nematodes, and harpacticoid copepods, are analyzed. It is shown that analysis of species composition is uninformative for a high species richness and a large number of unique species in each sample. It is more informative to use the generalized characteristics of communities, such as spectra of families and ecological and morphological groups of species. At the level of families and subfamilies, there are well-defined differences in the population of the sandy bottom and mangroves. The proportion of life forms in the different biotypes is informative for harpacticoid copepods. Big differences in the taxonomic composition of the studied bays are shown, interbiotopic differences make a smaller contribution to the overall diversity; i.e., each bay has its own set of species, which forms the population of each biotope. Nematodes and harpacticoids are distributed in space independently of each other.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
