The diversity and abundance of meiofauna at intertidal zone of Tanjung Aru and Lok Kawi / Rojita Lasion

Meiofaunal organisms are small animals that can pass through 1 mm mesh size sieve and retained on mesh sizes sieve from 1000 pm to 42 pm and lives in a wide variety of habitats. The study of diversity and and abundance the meiofauna was compared between two tidal zone of Tanjung Aru and Lok Kawi res...
