“…This high composition was possible since station 2 was located in the intertidal zone (littoral). Littoral zone is the transition zone between marine and land environment so that various invertebrate are present in this zone (Kang et al 2013;Hwang et al 2015 andSetyaboma et al 2015).…”

Susetya IE, Desrita, Ginting EDD, Fauzan M, Yusni E, Saridu SA. 2018. Diversity of bivalves in Tanjung Balai AsahanWaters, North Sumatra, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 19: 1147-1153. Local and regional market demands for bivalves increase outsideTanjung Balai City and Asahan District Waters, North Sumatra, Indonesia. As a result, high exploitation of bivalves occurred. In theother hand, there were less comprehensive information and studies on the diversity of bivalves in this area. This study aimed todetermine the diversity of bivalves and water quality of Tanjung Balai Asahan Waters; was conducted between July 2016 and November2017. Sampling of bivalves was conducted monthly. Several physical and chemical parameters were quantified. Data analysis includedcommunity structure analysis and Principal Component Analysis (PCA). The result showed that there were 16 species of bivalves from7 families in Tanjung Balai Asahan Waters. Station 2 had the highest composition of bivalves, while the lowest was noted at Station 1.The mean abundance of bivalves at stations 1, 2 and 3 were 352±22 ind/m2, 222±14 ind/m2 and 388±30,2 ind/m2, respectively. Ingeneral, the index of diversity was categorized as low to moderate. The evenness index was categorized as low to high, while thedominance index indicated the absence of dominant species at almost all stations except station 1. Water quality of the waters was stillin capacity to support the life of bivalves. Based on PCA analysis, it was obtained that the abundance of bivalves was positivelycorrelated with nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, salinity, and pH.
