Intertidal sand macrofauna from Long Island, New York
Abstract
This constitutes a faunal list of intertidal macrofauna collected from Long Island sand habitats during fall 1967. A total of 265 animals in 12 species was collected, of which 218 (82%) were members of four haustoriid amphipod species. These amphipods make up 50–90% of the standing crop of macrofaunal animals from aerobic intertidal sands from Maine to Georgia.
