| description | Studies of decapods diversity are important to understand the species composition in a
particular habitat. However, this information is very minute in Pahang estuaries area. This
study was conducted to identify diversity and abundance of juvenile decapods in Penor River
of Pahang. Specimens were collected from three different locations of the rivers using a
traditional fish trap. The samples collected and identified into genus based on their
morphological characteristics before analysed by using the Shannon-Wiener Diversity Index
and Simpson’s Diversity Indices. The highest diversity of decapods found at Penor River at
middle and inner rivermouth in the middle of the year respectively, while the lowest diversity
of decapods recorded at this river is outer rivermouth in May. The result gives an impact on
which months the decapods inhabit river estuaries. |
