The flats exposed at low tide are extensive some being up to 4 km from high water mark to low water level. Close on 400 species of animal have been recorded from these flats. The following zones are recognized: 1. A supralittoral fringe of two facies (a) dominated by Ocypodid crabs and Talitrid amphipods on semi-exposed shores, (b) the landward edge of a mangrove swamp with Sesarma spp., Uca spp. and talitrid amphipods on sheltered shores. 2. An upper midlittoral of varying facies: on semi-exposed shores dominated by Donax faba on a sandy slope and a community of tubicolous polychaetes on the flat at the base of the slope: on sheltered shores this area is replaced by the lower levels of the mangrove swamps with various combinations between. 3. A lower midlittoral of three facies (a) a community on dry sandbanks dominated by Dotilla fenestrata (b) a community on waterlogged banks of muddy sand dominated by Macrophthalmus grandidieri and (c) on areas with water lying on the surface a community of which the most conspicuous organism is the `sea grass' Diplanthera uninervis. 4. An infralittoral fringe dominated by (a) spp. of Cymodocea if the area is covered by standing water and (b) by Astropecten if the area is a sandbank. Discussions follow on the effects of shelter and wave action, on the associations of animals with one another and on zoogeographical implications.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"The fauna and flora of sand flats at Inhaca Island, Moçambique","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2025-07-02 08:33:14.980000","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+00:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":"Inhaca Island","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":1962,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2015-08-25","DateCreate":"2000-08-24","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:A1962WV72800007","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":2724,"PubliDate":1962,"Pagination":"93-128","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"31","Issue":null,"BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":45035,"SerRR":"Journal of Animal Ecology.
