This paper collates seagrass studies from 2008- 2017. The focus of review is on the studies conducted in Philippines and in some areas of world in relation to this dynamic and most productive marine ecosystem the seagrass meadows. The review reveals that there is an abundance in diversity, distribution and cover of seagrass in different parts of the country, wherein articles written in other part of the world provides data and information on physical, biological and economic importance of Seagrass in the human lives. The cause of its destruction was found out to be mostly anthropogenic activities. Limitations on the conducted studies in the Philippines was shown as reflected in the collected studies that are generally done along the coastal areas in the Visayas and Mindanao regions. Which practically shows an opportunity to explore different places in Luzon for an assessment of Seagrass for its ecosystem resiliency, stability, management and sustainability. Foreign studies included in the review reflects studies on assessment of biophysical characteristics of the seagrasses with the use of modern technologies like remote sensing and management practices that illustrates market value of ecosystem services of seagrass meadows on its application for some small-scale fisheries. Knowledge gap on socio-ecological importance of seagrasses, economic valuation of this marine habitat ecosystem services and wake up call for policy maker to consider seagrasses in their proposal for management shift of this ecologically significant habitat are topics needing further investigations.
