Impact of oil palm plantation to fish fauna at Batang Kerang floodplain, Balai Ringin, Sarawak

Fish composition and diversity in Batang Kerang floodplain were documented at brown water habitat and black water habitat. A total of 149 individuals of fish were caught. There were 13 species from 7 family caught for both water. The dominance species is Cyclocheilichtys apogon from family Cyprinida...

description Fish composition and diversity in Batang Kerang floodplain were documented at brown water habitat and black water habitat. A total of 149 individuals of fish were caught. There were 13 species from 7 family caught for both water. The dominance species is Cyclocheilichtys apogon from family Cyprinidae. Data analyzed were compared with previous studies to examine anthropogenic impact regarding on oil palm plantation at Batang Kerang floodplain to fish fauna. However, fish diversity indices are lower compared to previous studies. There were no significant different (t-test, p<0.005) in fish composition between brown water and black water. There were significance differences in physicochemical water quality parameters for Total Suspended Solid (TSS), Chlorophyll a, Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) and nutrients including orthophosphate, nitrogen-ammonia and nitrate.
