Abstract: Lumnitzera littore is a species of mangrove plant in the family Combretaceae.It is listed as “State Major Protected Wildlife” (CategoryⅡ)in China.It is also listed as endangered species in “International Convention on Wetlands”.From the aspects of biological characteristics,distribution,nursery planting techniques and community characteristics,this paper systematically summarizes the research situation on Lumnitzera littore,both in China and abroad.Moreover,combined with our relevant studies in nearly two years,we discuss the endangered mechanism and corresponding conservation measures of Lumnitzera littore and suggest that the surrounding habitats should be protected and attention be paid to the technology of tissue culture to protect Lumnitzera littorea resources.

Key words: endangered species, mangrove, lumnitzera littorea
