Abstract
<strong>Community of Macroalgae in Tayando-Tam Waters, Southeast Maluku.</strong> Macroalgae is one of the most important economically valuable resources to be developed for food and medicine. This study aims to determine the structure of macroalgae communities by examining the diversity, density, dominance and environmental conditions of its waters. The research was conducted in Tayando-Tam waters, Southeast Moluccas at five stations in September 2015. The study was conducted by transect along 200 meters from the coast to the open shore, observation stations in 50x50 cm quadrant size. The macroalgae community in Tayando-Tam waters is generally in good condition although there is one station that has a moderate dominance value due to a current limiting factor. The macroalgae obtained in five stations are 37 species, dominated by Acanthophora muscoides species, Hypnea spinella, and Halimeda opuntia. Water conditions are still in the optimal range for macroalgae growth.
