The aim of this study were to provided information about distribution, diversity, density, and percent cover of seagrass in Banten Bay. This study was conducted by Line Intercept Transect (LIT) method at three station. There are five species of seagrass that were found in Banten Bay, namely: Cymodocea rotundata, Cymodocea serrulata, Enhalus acoroides, Halophila ovalis, dan Thalassia hemprichii.
