The Sarangani Bay Protected Seascape (SBPS) is located in the southern part of Mindanao, Philippines, bordered by Sarangani Province and General Santos City. It is home to a large number of mangrove species, which mostly form narrow fringes and patches of mangrove forests parallel to the shoreline in rocky, sandy, or riverine areas. This resource contains 152 occurrence records of 22 true mangrove species in SBPS.Sampling Description
Study Extent
The field surveys were carried out from 2018 to 2022 in seven coastal towns and cities (Glan, Malapatan, Alabel, Maasim, Kiamba, Maitum, and General Santos), bordering the Sarangani Bay Protected Seascape, in the Mindanao Islands, Philippines.Sampling
A complete census of true mangrove species at known mangrove sites along the coast of SBPS was done and location coordinates were recorded.Quality Control
Only true mangroves following the classification of Primavera et al. (2016) based on the criteria of Wang et al. (2011) were included in the dataset. From this general list, we created the true mangrove list for SBPS. All the scientific names of mangrove samples were validated using Primavera et al. (2016).Method steps
- 1. Field survey from 2018-2022 along the coast of Sarangani Bay Protected Seascape. 2. All true mangrove species were documented and their locations were recorded. 3. Scientific names of mangroves were validated.
