Rehabilitation of mangrove forests is very important to maintain ecosystem stability and increase the productivity of mangrove forests. The success of mangrove forest rehabilitation can be seen by the density of mangrove vegetation and the increase in mangrove crabs. Mangrove crab is the main commodity for farming communities because in addition to playing an important role in the mangrove ecosystem, it also has high economic value so it needs to be developed to increase people's income. This research was conducted with the aim of knowing the density of mangrove vegetation and crab density in different planting years and the effect of mangrove habitat characteristics on crab density. The research was conducted in three different planting years, namely 2003, 2005, and 2006. Each planting year consisted of a front zone, a middle zone and a back zone. In each zone a measuring plot with a size of 5 m x 5 m was made to collect data on vegetation density, temperature, mud thickness, salinity, acidity, and dissolved oxygen (DO). Then in the 5 m x 5 m plot, a 1 m x 1 m plot was made to collect data on the number of crabs. Data analysis used regression equation and ANOVA difference test. The results showed that the highest vegetation density was in the back zone of the 2006 planting year with a density of 2160 individuals/ha, while the highest density of crabs was in the 2005 planting year with a density of 12111.11 individuals/ha. Regression analysis showed the effect of temperature, mud thickness and salinity variables on crab density with the equation Y = 3.447 - 0.044X1 - 0.009X2 - 0.230X3 with R = 0.809. In the different ANOVA test, only the thickness of the mud had a significant difference at three years of planting (0.00 < 0.05).

Abstract The mangrove ecosystem is one of the coastal ecosystems that has important ecological roles and functions in supporting marine and fishery resources. Marine and fisheries resources are largely determined by the contribution of mangrove litter. The aims of this study was to determine the production of Rhizophora mangrove leaf litter in Sungai Bersejarah mangrove ecosystem, and to determine the value of environmental parameters related to litter. The research was conducted in January until March 2021 in Sungai Bersejarah mangrove area Kayu Ara Permai, Siak Regency. Line transect plot were used to calculate the density of Rhizophora. Rhizophora litter production was measured using the trap net method placed at three sampling site. Three litter trap nets measuring 1 m x 1 m are placed at each station. Rhizophora tree density ranges from 316 - 444 ind./ha. The production of Rhizophora mangrove leaf litter in Sungai Bersejarah mangrove ecosystem was 0.82 – 1.39 g/m2/day (3.00 – 5.09 ton/ha/year), average was 4.11 ton/ha/year. Analysis of variance test showed that there was a significant difference in Rhizophora leaf litter production between sampling points with different Rhizophora tree densities (p<0.05). Mangrove vegetation density has a moderate relationship (r=0.43) to the production of Rhizophora mangrove leaf litter. Environmental parameters indicate that the condition of the Sungai Bersejarah mangrove ecosystem is still good and can support the life of mangrove vegetation.

Abstract. Indarjo A, Salim G, Zein M, Septian D, Bija S. 2020. The population and mortality characteristics of mangrove crab (Scylla serrata) in the mangrove ecosystem of Tarakan City, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 21: 3856-3866. The mangrove crab is an iconic species of Tarakan City and is often is used as a souvenir. However, the high demand for this species can cause its population to decline. This study aimed to characterize the mangrove crab (Scylla serrata) population in the mangrove ecosystem of Tarakan City, North Kalimantan, Indonesia. This study was designed using a quantitative descriptive method with a case study model. The samples of mangrove crabs were obtained from 6 different stations using a purposive sampling method. The mangrove crab specimens were caught using 35-50 units of crab traps known as the ambau brackets. The primary data included carapace length, carapace width, carapace thickness, sex, and the total weight of each mangrove crab specimen. The results showed that male mangrove crabs have positive allometric growth when the condition index was fat. However, female crabs exhibited negative allometric growth when the condition index was thin. The Von Bertalanffy growth model analysis showed that the maximum carapace length of male mangrove crab in the mangrove ecosystem of Tarakan City was approximately 11.1118 cm for 189 days, while the female length was 9.6474 cm for 80 days. The total mortality value of male and female crabs was 120.01% and 154.94%, the mortality due to fishing was 84.69% and 135.75%, and natural mortality was 35.32% and 19.2%, respectively. The estimated rate of exploitation of both male and female crabs was 70.57% and 87.61%, respectively. The exploitation of S. serrata in the mangrove ecosystem of Tarakan City was evident, hence, conservation efforts are urgently required.

The decline in mangrove vegetation density and the area of mangrove forests in the coastal province of Riau occurred due to the logging of mangrove forests and the conversion of mangrove forests into other uses such as industrial estates. This study aims to collect a database of mangrove ecosystems which includes the ecological structure of R. apiculata in Riau Province. Collecting data of mangrove vegetation condition was done by transect line and plot. The line transect was drawn from the reference point (the outer mangrove stand) with the direction perpendicular to the coastline to the mainland and made plots according to the category. The results showed that the population of R. apiculata was found in large numbers at Station 3 (350 ind) and a small/small amount was found at Station 1 (137 ind). In addition, Stations 1, 2 and 4 have only one grouping population of R. apiculata based on the Bhattacharya method, while Station 3 has two groupings. Furthermore, the highest R. apiculata density for tree category was obtained at Station 4 (1433.33 ind/m2), saplings category at Station 3 (10488.89 ind/m2) and seedlings category at Station 4 (3666667 ind/m2). Furthermore the water temperature ranged from 28.3 – 30.7°C, salinity 27.3 – 31.3, pH 7.3 – 7.9, DO 5.2 – 6.4 and redox potential ranged from 102 – 124 mV. Based on the standard criteria and guidelines for determining mangrove damage according to the Decree of the Minister of Environment No. 201 of 2004, the population density of R. apiculata at the research location is still classified as medium and refers to the Decree of the State Minister of Environment No. 51 of 2004 concerning Sea Water Quality Standards for Marine Biota, as a whole the range of measured water quality parameters is still within tolerance limits for life mangroves.

ABSTRAKKepiting bakau (Scylla serrata) merupakan salah satu potensi komoditas perikanan skala kecil yang memiliki nilai ekonomi tinggi. Kelimpahan populasi dipengaruhi oleh upaya penangkapan dan kondisi ekosistem mangrove sebagai habitat utamanya. Produksi kepiting bakau di Teluk Bintan menurun dan penyebabnya belum diketahui dengan pasti. Oleh karena itu, perlu dilakukan kajian tentang biologi kepiting bakau di Teluk Bintan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji status populasi kepiting bakau yang meliputi struktur ukuran, parameter pertumbuhan dan laju mortalitas dan eksploitasi. Pengambilan data kepiting bakau dilakukan dengan pendekatan yaitu fisher-based survey. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan ukuran kepiting bakau yang tertangkap mulai dari lebar karapas (CW) 64-172 mm, ukuran fase muda kepiting jantan yang tertangkap mencapai 46,62% dan betina mencapai 48,06%, keduanya hampir setengah dari tangkapan total, ini menunjukkan bahwa alat tangkap yang digunakan belum selektif. CW∞ jantan mencapai 176,93 mm lebih tinggi dari kepiting betina sebesar 169,58 mm, namun sebaliknya nilai koefesien K jantan (0,360) lebih kecil dari betina (0,390), sehingga pertumbuhan kepiting bakau betina lebih cepat dari jantan. Perkiraan angka kematian alami (M) jantan = 0,5566 dan kematian akibat penangkapan (F) jantan = 0,6434 sedangkan M betina = 0,59 dan F betina = 0,41. Laju eksploitasi (E) kepiting jantan mencapai 53,62%, ini dapat dikatakan telah terjadi lebih tangkap atau over eksploitasi. Kata kunci: Scylla serrata, parameter pertumbuhan, struktur ukuran, mangrove and Teluk Bintan ABSTRACTMud crab (Scylla serrata) is one of the potential of small-scale fishery commodities that have high economic value. The abundance of the population is affected by the fishing effort and conditions mangrove ecosystem as its main habitat. Mud crab production in the Gulf of Bintan declined and the cause is not known with certainty. Therefore, it is necessary to study on the biology of mud crab in the Gulf of Bintan. This study aims to assess the status of mangrove crab population that includes the size structure, parameters of growth and the rate of mortality and exploitation. Data retrieval is done with a mangrove crab fisher-based survey. The results showed that the size of mud crab caught from carapace width (CW) 64-172 mm, the size of the young phase male crabs caught females reached 46.62% and reached 48.06%, both are almost half of the total catch, it indicates that fishing gear used is not selective. CW∞ males reach 176.93 mm higher than the female crabs of 169.58 mm, but instead value koefesien K males (0.360) is smaller than females (0.390), so that the growth of female mud crabs faster than males. Estimated natural mortality rates (M) male = 0.5566 and deaths from arrest (F) male = 0.6434 while M females female F = 0.59 and = 0.41. The rate of exploitation (E) male crabs reached 53.62%, can be said to have occurred over fishing or over-exploitation. Keywords: Scylla serrata, growth parameters, structure size, mangrove and bay Bintan

The land crab Ucides cordatus is a keystone species of neotropical mangrove forests and an important resource of the artisanal fisheries. The spatial and temporal distribution of U. cordatus in the mangrove area of the Piraquê-açu river estuary was determined following a longitudinal estuarine salinity gradient (lower, middle, upper estuary) and along the vertical intertidal gradient. The numbers of open and closed burrows were counted monthly on fixed transects, the inhabiting crabs were caught, sexed and the carapace width measured, during 1 year. The mean crab density was 2.5 ind.m-². The highest crab density (3.9 ind.m-²), linked to high numbers of juvenile crabs, was found on the upper estuary and correlated with lower salinities. High intertidal levels had higher crab densities than lower intertidal levels, except in the upper estuary. Males were smaller than females; the mean carapace width of the population was 4.89 cm, below the minimum legal harvesting size (6 cm). The predominance of females over males at some sites (especially close to villages) brought out the advanced level of overfishing of this U. cordatus population and highlights the urgent need of management actions.

The aim of the present study was to characterize the external morphology and the orientation of burrows constructed by the mangrove crab Ucides cordatus. Data were obtained from two mangrove forests of similar vegetation dominance (Laguncularia racemosa) but differing in flooding heights. These mangroves were located near Barra de Icapara, Iguape City (SP), Brazil, (24°50′36″S–47°59′53′W). A total of 221 burrows were examined (120 on the high mangrove and 101 on the low mangrove). External morphology of the burrows was recorded by photographs for categorization and description. The directions of the burrow openings were recorded using a geological compass and the declivities of the ducts were measured with a clinometer. Females constructed 70.8% at Site A and 69.4% at Site B of the occupied burrows with the opening facing the margin of the river (P < 0.001), whilst males showed no significant difference in the burrow orientation (P > 0.05) at either site. In females, the tendency for burrow orientation possibly has a reproductive connotation as larval dispersal may be favoured and enhanced by the tides. Four groups of distinct tracks related to the morphotypes and developmental stages of U. cordatus were observed. No sediment constructions associated with the burrows were recorded for this species. Declivity of the burrows from juveniles was lower than from adults (P < 0.05), probably caused by the differential growth of the chelipeds in this species.
