## Abstract
Abstract Terebralia palustris is a snail that lives in the mangrove ecosystem. This snail is found around the mangrove roots. Snail fecundity is also influenced by several factors. This study aims to determine the association of fecundity with morphometrics and environmental factors. sampling is done randomly. The research station is 2. Each station has one plot measuring 10 m x 10 m and in it, there is a small plot measuring 0.5 m x 0.5 m in 4 pieces. Data were analyzed by regression using SPSS version 21 software. The average fecundity of snails in September was 85887.64 granules, October was 45962.67 granules, and November was 35668.62 granules. The average temperature of seawater is 35.20 ± 0.16 ˚C, the average salinity of seawater is 32.27 ± 0.63 ‰, and the average pH of seawater is 6.39 ± 0.09. The results of the regression analysis showed signs that the snail morphometry of T. palustris did not affect snail fecundity because the significance value was far above 0.05. The results of the regression analysis showed that acidity factors significantly affected fecundity with a significance value of 0.047 and the other factors is not affect.
