Abstract

Results of research on predator species on two oyster species (Crassostrea rivularis and Crassostrea gigas) from January to December 2022 in the Can Gio coastal estuary, have identified 22 predator species in 13 families belonging to 6 groups (Arthropoda, Coelenterata, Mollusca, Platyhelminthes, Polychaeta and Rhodophyta). Among them, the most diverse are Molluscs with 10 species, polychaetes with 5 species, arthropods with 4 species, Coelenterata, Echinaceans, flatworms and red seaweeds with only 1 species.

The highest frequency of encountering 10 enemy species of estuarine oysters is  Thalamita sima with 18,52%, Thalasina anomala with a frequency of 15,74% of the total number of enemy species. Other species have low encounter frequencies (f ˂ 15%); The highest frequency of encountering 12 species of predators of Pacific oysters is Actiniidae sp. with 18,13%, Amphibalanus amphitrite has a frequency of 17,54% of the total number of enemy species. Other species have low encounter frequencies (f ˂ 16%).
