Investigation and analysis of molluscs in different habitats of mangrove wetland in Zhangjiangkou,Fujian province
In order to understand the status of molluscs in different habitats of mangrove forest in Zhangjiangkou,Fujian Province,the species composition,diversity,density and biomass of molluscs in typical mangrove forest area,light beach area and Spartina alterniflora area in Zhangjiangkou Mangrove National Nature Reserve were studied.The results showed that a total of 14 species of molluscs from 10 families were collected in the reserve.Among them,there were 6 families and 10 species of Gastropoda and 4 families and 4 species of Bi-valvia.The molluscs community and diversity were the highest in mangrove forest area,followed by the light beach area,and the lowest in S.altemiflora area.It can be seen that mangrove and plain habitats play important roles in maintaining mollusc diversity,and dense S.al-terniflora is bad for molluscs,so the spread of S.alterniflora should be strictly controlled.
