摘要: Coralline intertidal habitats of marine protected areas, are important model systems to investigate species diversity and ecological functioning benthic communities. Spatial variability amphipod composition functional traits were studied over a three year period during the summer season at five transects Gulf Kachchh Marine Protected Area, India. A total 22,706 individuals, comprising 71 belonging 40 genera 23 families identified. Aoridae, Dexaminidae, Eriopisidae, Lysianassidae Maeridae best represented (68.2% abundance). Distinct spatial patterns in assemblage structure observed along horizontal vertical axes. The results demonstrated that was greatly influenced by gradient, with generally higher lower zones suggesting increased resource use strategies, whereas upper showed very little possibly due prevalence environmental filtering. As diversities promote better partitioning resilience ecosystem, these for management areas facing dual challenges global climate change anthropogenic pressures.
