Summary: ABSTRACT Biodiversity of Mangrove Species Title of the Study: Found in Tambacan Shoreline Poblacion, Sta. Catalina Researcher: JorevilE. Apla-on 4 th Year, BS Biology Student Year level: September, 2005 Date of Completion: This study attempts to assess the mangal community in Tambacan, Sta. Catalina. It focuses on the diversity and the abundance of the mangrove species of Tambacan. The area of the study was divided into 10 stations and each station comprises 4 quadrants. The station was then examined to determine mangrove diversity. The statistical tools used in the study were percentage, graph, and indices (Shannon Wiener Index, Species Evenness index, and Species Richness index). The study showed that Tambacan has a total of 10 mangrove species based on a population count of 1, 409 trees. Station-3 was the most diverse station and station-9 was the least diverse station. The study recommended that the people living near the area should protect the mangal community. Furthermore, the LGU of Sta. Catalina should prohibit people from converting the areas into residential places. It is recommended that a follow-up study should focus on the factors that affect the distribution of mangrove species in Tambacan.
