Abstract

Abstract The Indonesian Archipelago is one of the richest marine biodiversity areas in the world. While the total biodiversity of any particular area is a function of a complex set of physical, chemical and biological interactions, as well as geological history, it will be useful here to discuss biodiversity at two levels, namely at the ecosystem level and the species level. Genetic biodiversity is the least understood level and is beyond the scope of this book.
