ABSTRACT
Fish biodiversity in the mangrove area of Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, seems to be
forgotten, even though Lombok is the gateway to the Wallacea region. The purpose of this study was
to determine the biodiversity and status of mangrove fish species in Lombok. The study was conducted
in North Lombok and East Lombok using gillnets with 1-inch, 1.5-inch, and 2-inch meshes and stocking
net diameters of 1.5 cm and 2 cm. The results obtained were 79 species of fish belonging to 41 tribes
and 69 genera. The dominant species were Planiliza subviridis (13.17%), Sardinella lemuru (12.44%),
and Sillago sihama (11.70%). The value of the index (H) ranges from 2.542 to 3.356, the value of species
richness (d) ranges from 3.531 to 8.582, and the value of species evenness (E) ranges from 0.832 to 0.917.
Sardinella lemuru and Rastrelliger faughni, both near-threatened species, were recorded in this study.
The study was expected to provide information on the species richness and status of fish in mangrove
areas in Lombok, which can be used to determine policy strategies for the management and sustainable
use of fish in this area.
