Dataset of taxonomic identification from surface water in the coastal area of Peninsular Malaysia.

This article describes the abundance of phytoplankton community structures in Port Dickson, Negeri Sembilan and Pulau Tinggi, Johor during the Southwest and Northeast Monsoons and includes data from 48 selected sampling sites collected between July and December 2023. The seawater samples from 1-meter depth were obtained by using a Niskin water sampler, concentrated in a 50 ml centrifuge tube and immediately preserved with Lugol's iodine solution. The data include phytoplankton density (cell L), the total density of phytoplankton in each station, and the total number of genera obtained in every station.

Conservation Genetics of the Critically Endangered Southern River Terrapin () in Malaysia: Genetic Diversity and Novel Subspecies Distribution Ranges.

A population genetics study was carried out on the Southern River terrapin () from four places in Peninsular Malaysia: Pasir Gajah, Kemaman (KE), Terengganu; Bukit Pinang (BP), Kedah; Bota Kanan (BK), Perak; and Bukit Paloh, Kuala Berang (KB), Terengganu. The goal of this study is to identify genetic differences in two subspecies of in Malaysia. No previous reports were available on the genetic diversity, phylogenetic relationships and matrilineal hereditary structure of these terrapin populations in Malaysia.
