The purposes of this study were to evaluate the morphological variations and the abundance of Donax clams; to analyze the habitat profiles of Donax clams at Tengket Bangkalan Madura Beach. The sample of clams were taken by belt transect method. The habitat profile was studied based on the substrate type, water acidity, substrate acidity, salinity and the temperature of water. The data was analyzed descriptive-quantitatively. The results showed that in Beach Tengket Madura found Donax faba which had 15 types.
