Zooplankton and meiobenthos diversity at the intertidal sandy shores of Jizan and Farasan coastal areas of Red Sea

Distinctive studies were conducted for the identification of meiobenthos and zooplankton at Farasan Islands and Jizan sandy shores. The present work compares the meiobenthos and zooplankton communities at Alhsas sandy shore at Farasan Islands and As-Suways sandy shore at Jizan. Population density, s...
