• Abstract Mangrove ecosystems naturally function as trap of waste produced from anthropogenic activities including marine debris. This study aims to analyze marine debris and density of mangrove forests in the Purnama Village. The survey research method was carried out in two stations: Station I (Estuary of Sungai Masjid) and Station II (coastal waters of the Unri Marine Station), which was held from April to July 2021. Marine debris was collected in five plots in a quadrant transect measuring 100 x 50 meter. Identification results of mangrove species in Station I found 3 species of mangrove ( Xylocarpus granatum , Rhizophora apiculata and Bruguiera gymnorriza ), while at Station II found 3 species of mangroves ( Rhizophora apiculata , Xylocarpus granatum and Avecennia alba ). This research results obtained the release of marine debris at Station II is more than that of Station I. While in Station II there are 172 items (marine debris density of 0.172 item/m 2 ), weight of marine debris 12.665 grams/m 2 and mangrove density 2222 individu/ha (category very close). At Station I there are 35 items (the density of marine debris is 0.035 item/m 2 ), the total weight of marine debris is 3.194 grams/m 2 and the density of mangroves is 1678 individu/ha (category very close).
