چکیده

Biological diversity examines to study the habitats of the earth and marine environment which has a greater extent covers the oceans and soft sediment habitats. It helps us to find the associated terrestrial systems, and knowledge of marine biodiversity. Habitats are holding an assorted arrangement of macrobenthic communities which plays important roles in ecosystem processes like reprocess the nutrients, detoxifying pollutants and less important construction. It is the most developing aspects to understand about the biodiversity in marine and anthropogenic impacts which affects the habitats in order to effectively integrate the preservation procedures. The Arabian Gulf and Bahrain are normally higher since it has higher temperatures related with more evaporation rate. Even though macrobenthos in the Arabian Gulf and Bahrain are set apart the higher stages of biodiversity in which they are prominent by low down species richness since the environmental situation will be the high levels of salinity and heat. This survey helps us to understand and performed using various sampling and processing methods, a normal pattern of reduction in diversity and abundance of macrobenthos could be detected.

A new ecotoxicity tolerance index of macrobenthos associated with Zoanthus sansibaricus in the littoral zone of Hormuz Island, Persian Gulf, Iran

A general study with the objective to classify ecotoxicity status of macrobenthose associated with dominant toxic zoanthids in Hormuz Island is presented. Hence, a novel model based on hard bottom macrobenthos and the related substrate composition was suggested to be used for testing the accumulated palytoxin (PTX) in macrobenthose exposed to Zoanthus sansibaricus. Direct and rapid assessment i...
