| Summary: | There are no zoological studies related to wildlife especially birds done in UPMT mangrove area. The main objective of the study is to determine the composition and diversity of bird species in UPMT mangrove area and to classify the birds according to their feeding guild and status. Transect survey method was used to collect the data. The surveys were done twice a day (morning and evening) in the
study area. The results reveal that the species composition is high in the study site. The Diversity Index values (species diversity, species richness and species evenness) are high for the birds in the mangrove area. |
