Abstract
The present study was undertaken to know the distribution of meiobenthos of Gulf of Kutch during December(2010-May-2012).The macro benthos Gulf of Kutch were collected by using van veen grab having a mouth opening of 0.04 m2 from 6 different stations. In total 17 taxa were recorded in this monthly study in the meobenthos faunal assemblage. Selected physico- chemical parameters shows positive correlation with numerical abundance of meiobenthos, Nematodes was highest percentage followed by Foraminifera and others Isopoda Amphipoda more significant with chemical properties, in the study area and also other groups is diversified with physic chemical properties. The chemical properties in relation to environmental properties showing study which is included here can be used to measure the impact of near shore marine environment.
