Based on the data of fisheries resource survey by trawling from Minjiang Estuary and adjacent waters in Fujian in March,May,July,August in 2021,species composition,quantitative distribution,dominant species and community biodiversity characteristic of the fish were analyzed.Results showed that there were 104 kinds of fish in the investigated sea area,belonging 13 orders,46 families and 71 genera;among which the most species were Perciformes(50 kinds),followed by Clupeiformes(16 kinds).The temperature adaptability of fish was mainly warm water species,accounting for 70.19%,and the distributed water layer was mainly at the bottom species and the near-bottom species,accounting for 69.23% in total.There were 14 kinds of dominant species such as Coilia mystus,Parargyrops edita,Konosirus punctatus,and so on,most of them only occurring in 1 or 2 surveys,with significant seasonal differences.The fish stock density in weight and quantity were 667.10 kg·km-2 and 71.91×103 ind·km-2,respectively,which were higher in summer than spring.The Shannon-Wiener biodiversity index of fish in Minjiang Estuary was at a good level(2.622).
