Preliminary observations of Zooplankton in Pulau Tinggi, Marine Park, Johor, Malaysia

Zooplankton was studied in Pulau Tinggi, Marine Park, Johor, Malaysia for their abundance and species diversity. Water samples were collected within three months, April, June and October 2015.Ten sampling stations were established during the study period. A total of 54 species of copepods from 29 ge...
