In this paper, the first study of the distribution of animals and plants across tropical sand and mud flats exposed at low tide, will be found descriptions of the zonation of the animals and certain plants on the flats at Inhaca island near Lourenço Marques in Moçambique, East Africa. The flats exposed at low tide are extensive some being up to 4 km from high water mark to low water level. Close on 400 species of animal have been recorded from these flats. The following zones are recognized: a supralittoral fringe, upper midlittoral fringe, lower midlittoral fringe and infralittoral fringe. Discussions follow on the effects of shelter and wave action, on the associations of animals with one another and on zoogeographical implications.
