In order to understand the distribution characteristics of macrozoobenthos in a intertidal zone,Daxie Island,and to reveal the influence of natural environment and human activities on macrozoobenthos community,field investigation of macrozoobenthos was carried out including a rock intertidal section(C1) and a tide flat section(C2) in Daxie Island,Apr.,2006.Main result showed that:(1) a total of 19 macrozoobenthos species were obtained in the section C1,most of which belonged to mollusks(16 species);a total of 20 macrozoobenthos species were obtained in the section C2,4 species of which belonged to mollusks,6 species belonged to Polychaeta,and 8 species belonged to Arthropoda;(2) the density and biomass in section C1 were 583.33 ind/m² and 638.56 g/m² respectively which are apparently higher than those in section C2(32 ind/m² and 7.83 g/m² respectively);(3) there were a stronger vertical variations of macrozoobenthos community in section C1 than in section C2.
