Struktur Komunitas Bivalva Pada Ekosistem Mangrove Di Teluk Buo Kecamatan Bungus Teluk Kabung Kota Padang Provinsi Sumatera Barat
Teluk Buo mangrove forest is one of tourist destination in the Sumatera Barat Province. The input of pollutant originated from anthropogenic activities, however, reducing the water quality and as a consequence negatively affects the mangrove ecosystem as well as the associated organisms, including bivalves. To understand the community structure of bivalves in the mangrove ecosystem, a research was conducted on February 2017. The observation of bivalve community is done by making line transects. There were 3 transect lines and in each line, 9 sub plots (1x1m) observed. The bivalves present in the plots were collected manually everyday for 2 weeks period. Results shown that there were 6 bivalves species present, they were Geloina erosa, Anadara antiquata, Barbatia sp., Lucinoma galathea, Chamelea striatula and Trychardium sp. with bivalves abundance was ranged from 6,667 to 31,481 organisms/ha. The value of diversity index (H’) was 0.2650-2.403, the dominance index (C) was 0.210-0.722 and the uniformity Index (E) was 0.059-0.563. The bivalva community structure in Teluk Buo is moderate with the dominant species (Geloina erosa) has been disturbed by the existence of ecological pressure and the dominant species causing unbalanced mangrove area. Abiotic environmental factors include temperature was 29-31 0C; pH of water was 7.3-7.5, soil pH 7.1-7.2 and salinity was 25-340/00.
Key words: Bivalves, Mangrove Ecosystem, Teluk Buo, Water Quality.
