A Baseline of Fish Species Richness Through eDNA Metabarcoding in an Understudied Tropical Mangrove Coast of Java, Indonesia

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 6, November–December 2025.
This study demonstrates the use of environmental DNA metabarcoding of fish in a highly diverse but poorly described tropical mangrove ecosystem along the North coast of Java, Indonesia. Our results indicate eDNA metabarcoding can capture temporal differences and provide a baseline for fish diversity for future (eDNA metabarcoding) biodiversity studies ...
