This survey was conducted to know the different of species and diversity at two study sites which is seagrass area and non-seagrass area Environmental variables are recorded. There was 4 family and 4 species were found at both sites. From the survey, Cerithium sp was the dominant species and can be found at both study sites. They occupied more than 70% of the total macrobenthic animals found.
