摘要: Twenty-eight foraminiferal species (15 families and 24 genera) were identified from the mangrove surface sediment samples at Kapar Matang on West coast of Peninsular Malaysia. The calcareous forms, particularly Ammonia beccarii Buccella frigida, found to be characteristic sediments, whereas agglutinated like Arenoparrella mexicana Haplophragmoides wilberti dominated environment. Based faunal abundance (root-transformed data), three species' groupings distinguished samples. Group-1 (with two sub-groups) by Ammotium fragile, A. salsum, Miliammina fusca Reophax moniliformis was representative Kapar, Group-2 H. Matang. Group-3 eventually separated (i.e. Group-1) due presence B. frigida which prefer nearshore/seaward areas with high salinity. Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) indicated that (relatively) salinity (30‰), pH (8), sandy texture (70%) low total organic carbon (TOC) (10%), supported distribution M. fusca, R. moniliformis, while a composition clay (31%) TOC (30%) (Matang) species. Overall, locally governed different environmental settings prevailing © Penerbit UMT.
