Abstract | The oceanic-to-neritic species shift of microzooplanktonic tintinnids and their interaction with relevant abiotic variables are two crucial processes in the marine ecosystem. However, these processes remain poorly documented in China's marginal seas. In the summer of 2022, we investigated the community structure of pelagic tintinnids in surface waters from the South China Sea (SCS) to the Yellow Sea (YS), passing through the East China Sea (ECS). A number of 58 species from 23 genera were identified, with 36 and 22 species belonging to oceanic and neritic genera, respectively. The abundance proportion of oceanic and neritic genera exhibited a decreasing and increasing trend, respectively, from the SCS to YS. Furthermore, four distinctive tintinnid community groups were classified based on cluster analysis using tintinnid species and abundance data, and the position of southern Taiwan Strait was identified as the "Shift Point" for oceanic-to-neritic species dominance. The top two tintinnid species in each group showed distinct variations in body size. Additionally, multivariate biotic-abiotic statistical analyses revealed that temperature determined tintinnid species richness, while temperature, salinity, Si(OH)4, and Chl a determined tintinnid abundance. Our study provides a substantial foundation for recognizing the oceanic-to-neritic species shift of tintinnids in the China's marginal seas, and highlights the role of biotic-abiotic factors in driving biogeochemical fluxes and the potential response of microzooplankton decreasing and increasing trend, respectively, from the SCS to YS.
