Abstract

Abstract

A further ecological survey of the coral reefs of the Xisha Qundao has been carried out during April-May,1976.The quantitative and qualitative data given in this paper were obtained by direct underwater observations using aqualung and skin diver,and by analyzing the transect work with quadar.ts.Transects were placed from the shore to seaward slopes along the NE,SW,SE,NW directions of the reef respectively.A wooden quadrat of 1 m² was laid down at random at intervals of 50 m along the transect,thus numbers of species and percentage covered in per quadrat could be recorded.Shannon-Weaver's index was used to specify the divesity of the hermatypic corals.
