A Review of Recent Status on Mudskippers (Oxudercine Gobies) in Indonesian Waters

 Abstract

The status of valid species and distributional range of mudskippers (oxudercine gobies) in Indonesian waters are reviewed here. There are 24 species of mudskippers recently recorded. Refered to seven largest islands region in Indonesia, Sumatra has largest number of mudskippers (14 species), following Java (12 species, Lesser Sundas (11 species), Kalimantan (9 species), West Papua (9 species), Sulawesi (8 species) and Moluccas (8 species). Further research is required to clarify distributional range and to adress conservation challenge of mudskippers in Indonesian waters.

  Oceanography & Fisheries Open Access Journal Juniper Publishers Authored by: Arlene L Avillanosa Abstract Zooplankton samples were taken in six sampling stations at Malampaya Inner Sound, Taytay, Palawan, to determine its abundance, distribution, and diversity, and composition related to the complete lunar cycle during the month of April 2007. Horizontal towing and vertical hauling of 333 μm plankton net was conducted from the afternoon to midnight, two hours before the onset of the moon phase. 27 zooplankton taxa belonged to eight (8) different phyla identified. During the entire lunar phase, arthropods, chordates, cnidarians, and chaetognaths were present. Zooplankton appears in great abundance during nighttime, full moon, and high tide based on 1-month sampling. Higher zooplankton diversity was observed during the new and full moon, largely represented by arthropods, particularly copepods and decapods. Generally, the area has a high number of individuals but...
