Abstract: This study aimed to assess the mangrove species present in the coastal area of Kusiong, Datu Odin Sinsuat, Maguindanao. The study paved a way for species identification on areas which are potential of being rich in biodiversity in the near future. Furthermore, the study was conducted for the purpose of making an up-to-date list of mangrove species and conservation of this ecosystem. Random sampling was used with a total number of 4 stations measuring in 15 x 15 meters’ quadrat and mangrove species were identified and classified taxonomically using the Field Guide Manual to Philippines Mangroves by Primavera et al., (2006). Mangrove species in this field guide are sorted by genera. Close-up photographs of distinctive features (leaves, flowers, fruits, bark, roots) were provided for visual comparison to facilitate the identification of species. Samples were checked and confirmed by a licensed Biologist. The results of the study concluded that the identified species of mangroves in Kusiong, Datu Odin Sinsuat, Maguindanao were species Bruguiera sexangula (Lour.) Poir. and Bruguiera parviflora (Roxb.) Wight & Arn ex Griff. and classified under the family of Rhizophoraceae. Moreover, the Bruguiera species dominate the ecosystem due to its high efficiency in initial salt exclusion. For further studies, it is highly recommended to have a comprehensive assessment on the conservation and development of mangrove ecosystem of Kusiong, Datu Odin Sinsuat, Maguindano.
