Sedati is one of the Sidoarjo Regency's Coastal Areas, which has potential resources in capture fisheries. Many industries in Sedati have caused a decrease in the aquatic productivity and aquatic organism conditions, including gastropods. Gastropods are easy to find in various habitats, but their distribution is highly dependent on the habitat conditions such as physical, chemical and biological factors. Gastropods are sensitive to environmental changes and can withstand the environmental changes that are not too wide to be used as indicators of environmental pollution. This study aims to determine the structure of the gastropod community in the Sedati Waters. The research was performed using an observation method. The gastropod samples were taken using a dredge net, while the substrate samples were collected using Ekman grab. The gastropods found in Sedati Waters from October to December are nine species from 2 orders and six families. The species most commonly found in R. venosa, while the least is C. ventricosa. The abundance index of gastropods every month shows a marked difference between stations but not the other main parameters. The diversity index value was between 1.4846-2.0897. The evenness index value reached between 0.8284 and 0.9548. The dominance index ranged from 0.16 to 0.2299. The community structure of gastropods in the Sedati Waters, Sidoarjo, East Java shows a significant difference (p<0.05) between stations and belongs to the medium category.
Diversity and Abundance of Gastropods in the Intertidal Zone of Watukarung, Indonesia
Marine Research in Indonesia, 2019
We present the density, diversity, and environmental conditions of gastropods in the Watukarung intertidal zone ? a coastal region of Pacitan Regency, Indonesia, adjoining the Indian Ocean. Gastropods play an important role in coastal ecosystems. In Watukarung, the local people collect marine organisms, including gastropods during low tide to supplement their income. Baseline information on the presence and abundance of gastropods in Watukarung are not available. Our survey collected 173 individuals of gastropod in the intertidal area of Watukarung that represent 8 families, 9 genera, and 13 species. Gastropod diversity index (H') in the three beaches (Ngalorombo, Pasir Putih, and Kasap) show varying values from the categories of low and medium species diversity. Although the data suggest that there should be a dominant species in the ecosystem (E < 0.5), there are no strong dominance species in the community (C < 0.5). Watukarung coastal waters are still in good condition...

Gastropods play an essential role in the ecosystem and can be used as bioindicators of environmental pollution. Understanding of their behavior, habitat, and distribution, and how these factors evolve, is crucial. This paper aimed to describe the diversity of the gastropod community and their spatial taxa distribution, based on the specimen frequency across all observed samples, in the diverse environment of Alas Purwo National Park (APNP), East Java, Indonesia. We studied eight beaches and two mangroves areas, and the study areas of the intertidal zone divided into upper, middle, and lower zones towards the sea. The purposive sampling was used to determine the locations and multi-plot quadrats for observations. The diversity of gastropods was elucidated by using the Shannon and Simpson indexes, while the Morisita index was applied for analyzing their spatial distribution pattern. However, the correspondence analysis and principal component analysis were performed using the software of PAST 3.22 for describing the diversity profile and individual rarefaction of gastropods together with environmental quality. There were three beach types: rocky, sandy, and muddy beaches were found in APNP. The highest diversity index (H') was found on Pancur beach: H' = 3.271, D = 0.947 of 67 species. The spatial distribution pattern of gastropods species was weakly clumped to random, with Ip: 0.165-0.016. Gastropods, both predators and scavengers, were distributed from the upper to lower zones. The distribution of gastropods in APNP is mostly in type B. These results expand our knowledge of gastropods diversity and distribution of Indonesia's beach and can contribute to the future environmental assessments of biodiversity of tropical intertidal zones worldwide.

Public awareness and knowledge on mangrove forest biodiversity, especially gastropods, is very limited. This study aims to compare the density and diversity index of gastropod species according to their distance from the coastline and to analyze the relationship of the two with the physical environment around them. Three lanes were placed in the southern part of the mangrove forest. The first lane (LT-1) was placed about 5 m from the coastline towards the sea. The second lane (LT-2) was placed 10 m towards the sea from LT-1 and the third lane (LT-3) was 10 m from LT-2 towards the sea. In each lane there were 10 (1 mx 1 m) plots and the distance between adjacent plots was 10 m. A total of 1.432 Gastropod individuals consisting of 16 species and 7 families were collected from 30 plots. In detail 16 species (927 individuals) were collected from LT-1, 16 species (500 indv) from LT-2, and only 3 species or 5 individuals from LT-3. The density of LT-1, LT-2, and LT-3 species respectively ...

This study conducted to determine the water quality of Situ Ciburuy based on the structure of the gastropod community as a bioindicator. The survey method used in this study based on collecting data directly at the research area (purpose sampling method). For instance, species and density of gastropods were descriptively analyzed, using diversity index and evenes index. For instance, The findings showed that level of water quality in Situ Ciburuy based on gastropods bioindicators was lightly polluted. That is indicated by the low to moderate diversity of gastropods, which ranges from 1.31-1.98. The Shannon evenness index (0,73-0.95) revealed low gastropod species diversity in Situ Ciburuy, indicating low evenness of gastropod in Situ Ciburuy.

The permanently inundated mangrove ecosystem support gastropods communities to live and grow. The gastropods communities require a mangrove ecosystem for feeding, spawning, nursing, distributing, and breading. The distribution of gastropod communities is shown by the number, association, and clustering of gastropods and is influenced by the potential of permanent water inundation. This research used association, clustering, and correlation methods to describe the distribution of gastropod communities. The results of this research showed that the mangrove ecosystem on the north coast of Jakarta was dominated by Avicennia marina, Bruguiera gymnorrhiza, Calophyllum inophyllum, Cerbera manghas, Excoecaria agallocha, Nypa fruticans, Rhizophora apiculata, Rhizophora mucronata, Rhizophora stylosa, Sonneratia caseolaris, Terminalia catappa, and Thespesia populnea with density between 20-2800 trees/ha. However, the gastropods communities in the mangrove ecosystem were dominated by Cassidula angulifera, Cassidula aurisfelis, Cassidula plecotrematoides, Cassidula rugata, Ellobium aurisjudae, Ellobium gangeticum, Pythia plicata, Cerithidea obtusa, Cerithidea quoyii, and Melanoidessarius tuberculata with abundance between 0.36 to 6.68 ind/m 2 , 12 pairs positive association from 78 pairs, had uniform distribution (Moroshita index 0-0.87), and two clusters.
