Abstract: Ecosystem services are very important for human life, but until now part of these ecosystems as a resource asset that contributes to the country's economy has not been evaluated further. Mangrove ecosystems are one of the ecosystems that grow in alluvial sludge in coastal areas and river estuaries. They have a very important role to support fishery productivity as habitat of nursery and spawning grounds for aquatic biota. Based on those conditions, this study is directed to explore ecosystem services of ecology economic value to enhance mangrove sustainability. The analysis from data of 2017 on mangrove ecosystem of Tangerang District, Banten showed that the total economic value of mangrove ecosystems per hectare is IDR. 49.260.590, 16. The analysis of optimal resource allocation can be concluded that optimal of mangrove area is 415, 89 Ha with total economic value IDR.20.486.986.843, 00. Conversion of mangrove ecosystems into several land changes will have an impact on the habitat that lives in it also has a negative effect on the income of coastal communities who use it, that have to be managed carefully. Economic valuations based on ecosystem services can enhance sustainable management of mangrove ecosystems and provide welfare to coastal communities who use them.
