Abstract: A red tide survey of 14 voyages was made in the Red Tide-Monitoring Areas of Xincun Harbour in Lingshui,Hainan during the period from April to October 2011,and recorded therein were phytoplankton species composition,dominant species,density,Shanon-Wiener index(H’) and other community characteristics,based on which the horizontal distribution and seasonal variation trend of the phytoplankton community were analyzed.The results showed that a total of 106 species were recorded,of which diatom was dominant.However,the dominant species changed with time.The number of phytoplankton individuals was significantly different in horizontal distribution,was higher inside the harbour than near the entrance,and was remarkably affected by temperature.
