Diversity and distribution of scleractinian and non-scleractinian corals at selected areas in Tioman Island
Diversity and distribution of Scleractinian and Non-scleractinian corals were investigated in Tioman Island (Teluk Benuang, Kampung Genting, Pulau Renggis and Teluk Teduh) using Coral Video Transect (CVT) method. A total of 30 genera belong to 13 families of Scleractinian and 2 families of Non-scler...

The average percent coverage of coral family was dominated by Acroporidae (34.8%), followed by Faviidae (30.9%) and Poritidae (9.5%). The highest number of coral genera was found in Tlk. Benuang (24) compared to Tlk. Teduh (21), Pulau Renggis (19) and Kg. Genting (18). Based on Chi-square analysis, most of coral genera were found highly significance with the study areas (p<0.01) except Acropora, Hydnophora, Plerogyra, Cycloseris, Ctenactis, and Millepora. 10 m depth has the highest number of coral genera (29) compared to 5m depth (20).
