Abstract
Phytoplankton community has been widely distributed in marine, estuarine, brackish waters and fresh waters. Diatoms communities have dominated in all stations especially in Sungai Samariang followed by dinoflagellates and other phytoplankton. In this study, dinoflagellates have shown several numbers of genera though not relatively high in number of individuals per sample. Sungai Sarawak and Sungai Samariang showed that they contained a variety of dinoflagellates genera such as Alexandrium, Ceratium, Dinophysis, Gonyaulax, Peridinium, Pentapharsodinium, Protoperidinium, Prorocentrum and Scrippsiella. Through this study, several of toxic species have been indicated for example Alexandrium, Dinophysis, Gonyaulax, Peridinium and Prorocentrum. Physico-chemical factors such as salinity, pH and temperature and nutrients for example nitrate have affecting the growth and distribution of phytoplankton in water columns.
