| dc.description.abstract | Background: Research related to the existence and diversity of Gastropod species in the Alas Purwo National Park is still very minimal, especially in mangrove forests. This study aimed to determine the diversity of gastropods in the mangrove forests of Jatipapak Resort Kucur, Alas Purwo National Park. Methods: This study was conducted from April to December 2020. The method used was plot sampling by following systematic transects of mangrove vegetation. Results: The research results obtained were 420 Gastropods belonging to 6 tribes, 11 genera, and 14 species. The diversity of Gastropods in the mangrove forests of Jatipapak TN Alas Purwo is in the moderate category, this is indicated by a diversity value of 1.966, and the similarity of Gastropods is quite evenly distributed with a value of 0.745. Conclusion: Based on these results, the most common species found were Nerita articulata, while the most diminutive species found was Ellobium aurisjudae. | en_US |
