英文摘要	The Yellow River Delta (YRD) is the youngest, broadest, and most integrated wetland ecosystem in China. However, it is currently facing numerous threats, leading to local habitat destruction and species depletion. Spatial-temporal differences of macrobenthos functional feeding groups (FFGs), in the YRD, in May, August, and November, 2017. The ecological health status (EHS) was assessed in this investigation using the multivariate AMBI (M-AMBI) and the feeding evenness index (jFD). The results showed that the omnivorous, carnivorous, and detritivore groups were widely distributed in the YRD in May, August, and November respectively. The biomass of phytophagous and carnivorous groups was dominant groups in May and August, respectively. Furthermore, the relative abundance of planktivorous groups was higher in northern YRD in May and August. The macrobenthos community, in general, was slightly disturbed according to the AMBI, which were mainly distributed in the low tide zone. However, 70% of stations were classified as being in "poor" to "bad" status according to the M-AMBI and jFD indices, particularly in August. All the results will provide a basis for the long-term ecological assessment of reclamation, and the findings required further protection of the Yellow River Delta. © 2023, The Authors.
