The Isolation of Vibrio bacteria was conducted by streat plate method on selective media of TCBSA (Thiosulfate Citrate Bile Salt Sucrose Agar) and identify the Vibrio bacterium through the morphological and biochemical tests based Bergey's Manual of Systematic Bacteriology In Microbiology laboratory of Biology Faculty of Gadjah Mada University. The Result showed there are 7 isolates Vibrio spp. bacterias in M. meretrix they are isolate 1.1, 1.4, 1.7, 1.8. 5.3, 3.5, 2.6 PSBI Keyword: Meretrix meretrix, Vibrio, identification]]>
