Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This research aimed to identify true mangroves in the ecotone area of Bintuni Bay, West Papua, Indonesia. It applied a plotless transect sampling method to identify two true mangroves previously unknown to the area, namely Amyema mackayensis and Brownlowia Argentina. The presence of the species in Bintuni Bay extended its distribution to the northern area of Indonesian New Guinea. With the addition of these two new records, Bintuni Bay hosted 30 species of true mangroves.
