Abstract
In the Laguna Segara Anakan, there are two species of mangrove crab such as: Scylla serrate and Scylla transquebarica. Both of these species are always in the same water conditions in the Segara Anakan Lagoon, Cilacap. The purpose of this study was to examine the co-existence both species populations (S. serrate and S. transquebarica) in the Segara Anakan Lagoon. Sampling were carried out on April and June 2019 in three locations namely Klaces, Panikel and Sapuregel. Traps were used to collect crab samples. According to the research result that in the Klaces, the number of S. serrata (n=17) is greater than the number of S. transquebarica (n=4). Whereas in Panikel and Sapuregel, the number of S. transquebarica was more than the number of S. serrata. The presence of S. serrata and S. transquebarica in mangrove habitat is always side by side. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
