Title

Struktur komunitas Echinodermata pada berbagai tipe habitat di Daerah intertidal Pantai Lakeba, Kota Baubau Sulawesi Tenggara

Abstract

Echinoderms are one of organisms that inhabit intertidal areas which have important ecological roles in marine ecosystems, also have high economic values. The community structure and distribution pattern of Echinoderms in the intertidal area can provide an overview of the condition of the Echinoderm community. This research aims to determine the community structure of Echinoderms in various habitat types in the intertidal areas of Lakeba Beach, Baubau Town. The community structure of Echinoderms were observed using quadratic transec method. Echinoderms found were 777 individuals consisting of 18 species from 5 classes. Echinoderms were distributed in four habitat types, i. e. sandy, sand covered with seagrass, rocky, and rock covered with algae habitats. The highest abundance of Echinoderm was Ophiocoma scolopendrina (Ophiuroidea) and the lowest were Maretia planulata, Arachnoides placenta (Echinoidea), Holothuria scabra, H. leucospilota, Stichopus horrens (Holothuroidea), and Isocrinidae (Crinoidea). The species diversity of Echinoderms was categorized as moderate (H’ = 1,42180), species evenness was moderate (E = 0,49191), and no dominant species of Echinoderm community (D = 0,36601). Echinoderm community living in the intertidal area was influenced by antropogenic factors.
