The Distribution and Ecology of the Interstitial Meiofauna of a Sandy Beach at Whitsand Bay, East Cornwall

Harris Roger P.

Abstract

The interstitial meiofauna was investigated on an exposed sand beach at Whitsand Bay, Cornwall. An intertidal transect of eight stations was sampled regularly over a period of 2 years from May 1968 to May 1970. Quantitative core samples were taken to a depth of 50 cm. Nematodes were the dominant group on the beach, forming about 50% of the meiofauna. Harpacticoid copepods were second in overall abundance. Hydrozoa, turbellaria, gastrotrichs and tardigrades were also present.
