Biomonitoring of benthic organisms for coastal protection: a checklist study from Pantai Remis and Blue Lagoon on the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia

The objective of the study was to provide an updated checklist of benthic marine organisms in Pantai Remis (Selangor) and Blue Lagoon (Negeri Sembilan) in November 2022. The research areas comprised a total of 26 species of marine benthic organisms, which were divided into 12 orders, 18 families, an...
