Data were collected on a (bi)monthly basis in 2012–2013 at 15 locations in the shallow (<40 m) coastal area, revealing three spatially distinct species assemblages, related to clear gradients in some environmental parameters. A species-poor <i>coastal assemblage</i> was discerned within the muddy, turbid-water zone (6–20 m depth), dominated by Atlantic seabob shrimp <i>Xiphopenaeus kroyeri</i> (Crustacea: Penaeoidea). Near the 30 m isobath, sediments were much coarser (median grain size on average 345±103 µm <i>vs.</i> 128±53 µm in the <i>coastal assemblage</i>) and water transparency was much higher (on average 7.6±3.5 m <i>vs.</i> 2.4±2.1 m in the <i>coastal assemblage</i>). In this zone, a diverse <i>offshore assemblage</i> was found, characterized by brittle stars (mainly <i>Ophioderma brevispina</i> and <i>Ophiolepis elegans)</i> and a variety of crabs, sea stars and hermit crabs. In between both zones, a <i>transition assemblage</i> was noted, with epibenthic species typically found in either the <i>coastal</i> or <i>offshore</i> assemblages, but mainly characterized by the absence of <i>X. kroyeri.</i> Although the epibenthic community was primarily structured in an on-offshore gradient related to depth, sediment grain size and sediment total organic carbon content, a longitudinal (west-east) gradient was apparent as well. The zones in the eastern part of the Suriname coastal shelf seemed to be more widely stretched along the on-offshore gradient. Although clear seasonal differences were noted in the environmental characteristics (e.g. <i>dry vs. rainy</i> season), this was not reflected in the epibenthic community structure. <i>X. kroyeri</i> reached very high densities (up to 1383 ind 1000 m<sup>-</sup>²) in the shallow coastal waters of Suriname. As <i>X. kroyeri</i> is increasingly exploited throughout its range, the current study provides the ecological context for its presence and abundance, which is crucial for an ecosystem approach and the sustainable management of this commercially important species and its habitat.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Spatio-temporal distribution patterns of the epibenthic community in the coastal waters of Suriname","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2024-12-10 01:33:17.368041","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+01:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":"Suriname; Tropical; Soft-bottom; Coastal waters; Epibenthos;Xiphopenaeus kroyeri","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2015,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2016-06-20","DateCreate":"2016-05-29","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000364898100003","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.1016/j.csr.2015.08.006"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":256843,"PubliDate":2015,"Pagination":"25-40","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"108","Issue":null,"BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":42769,"SerRR":"Continental Shelf Research.
