Fish assemblages in planted mangroves of different ages in northwestern Lingayen Gulf, northwestern Philippines, composed of: seven-year (Tondol, Anda), nine-year (Pangapisan, Alaminos), 11-yr (Imbo, Anda), 12deployed ~1 m from the edge of the plantation of each site at low tide for three days (before, during, and after spring tide) in December 2008 and February 2009. Fish samples were collected the following day, measured, then weighed in the laboratory. Fish species were categorized based on trophic level and habitat preferences. A total of 593 individuals belonging to 50 species from 22 families were recorded. There were no apparent trends in terms of mangrove-associated species dominated the mature plantation (> 12 yr) while reef-associated species were mostly

from different mangrove stands. The carnivore species have high proportion (at least 50 %) in all sites but have varying dominance with mangrove stand ages. Other trophic categories have minimal contribution (< 30 %).
Table 1. Fish species with relative density (%) and relative biomass (%) recorded from each mangrove stand. There were no apparent trends on species abundance and biomass with stand age. However, certain species appear to be more abundant in younger stands (e.g. Hyporhamphus dussumieri) and there are species that are more dominant in older stands (e.g. Atherinomorus lacunosus).
