| Abstract |
The coral reef existence at eastern front of Mahakam Delta has never been investigated, since the water condition and bottom substrate have been considered unsuitable for the coral reef development. Interestingly, thirty genera of hard coral in eleven families and eleven genera of soft coral in six families were found from this research. Video belt transect methods discovered poor/bad to fair/moderate of coral cover condition. These results confirmed that coral reef does exist at eastern front of Mahakam Delta, Tani Baru Village, Anggana Sub-district, Kutai Kartanegara District, East Kalimantan Province. |
