Abstract

A study of biological aspects of mangroves was conducted at Sepang-Lukut mangrove forest Negeri Sembilan between latitudes 2 36- 2 41N and longlitudes 101 42 - 101 46 E. Fifteen plots each measuring 10 x 40 m were distributed randomly throughout the study area for the sampling of mangrove vegetation. All plants were sampled and identified. All plants growing outside the plots were also collected for documentation. The occurrence of invertebrates and vertebrates in the study area were recorded. There were nine species of mangrove plants were recorded in the study area with Rhizophora mucronata as the dominant species. Birds crabs and mudskipper pteriophtalmodon sp. are common in this study area.
