pictoral index
  Whaz zat?!!
Want to find out more about what you saw on Chek Jawa?
But alas, you don't know it's name so you can't look it up the text index?
Use the pictoral index instead!

The pictoral index are a series of thumbnails grouped
by the general shape or colour and texture of the lifeform.

 
Sea apple sea cucumber
Sand star
 
Bryozoan
Copper-banded butterflyfish
 

Within each category of shapes, thumbnails are arranged by size and the ecosystem they are commonly seen in. Click on the thumbnail for an enlarged image and a link to the factsheet on the lifeform. Because these pages has lots of images, they may take some time to load.

If you can't find the lifeform you saw, do drop us an email and we will gladly try to help you sort it out.

The thumbnails do not include the trees and plants of the coastal hill forest and mangroves, or the more familar animals such as insects, spiders, birds, octopus and squids. Use the text index to find these instead.
