Polymesoda expansa belongs to the class of Bivalves that are found in mangrove forests, their habitat is between mangrove roots on muddy substrates, sandy mud and mangrove litter. This study aims to determine the abundance of P. expansa in Anak Setatah Village, Kepulauan Meranti Regency, examine the size frequency distribution, and investigate the distribution pattern in the area. The study conducted in October 2024 by using a survey method. The sites were located in the coastal waters of Anak Setatah Village. Station I near residential areas, Station II near fishing ports, and Station III in agricultural areas. One-way ANOVA was used to analyze differences abundance between stations and zones. The results revealed significant differences in abundance, where Station II (near fishing ports) was the highest abundance, and while Station I (near residential areas) was the lowest. The middle zone had the highest abundance among zones. Furthermore, based on the results of the ANOVA test p (0.04 < 0.05), meaning that there is a significant difference abundance between stations. LSD test showed that there was a significant difference in the abundance between stations I and II, and station I and station III between there was no significant difference, of the ANOVA test obtained a p value of 0.115 > 0.05, meaning that there was no significant difference in the abundance between zones. The size frequency of P. expansa ranged from 17.6-64.8 mm, and the distribution pattern was clustered.
