The objective of this study is to examine the natural resistance of marine borer group forests, namely Diospyros sp., Calophyllum inophyllum, Dillenia indica, Albizia falcataria (L) Fosberg, and Vitex cofasssus. A total of 30 samples, 5 cm x 5 cm x 30 cm in size, were prepared. Both samples were placed using a plastic strap and were submerged for 3 months in the sea at a depth of 3 m. By obtaining the attack strength and weight loss of the samples, the biological output of the wood samples was analysed at the end of the bioassay. The findings showed that all samples were targeted at different intensities by the marine borer, leading to different weight losses. D. In contrast with the other species, Indica showed the lowest attack strength and weight loss. By comparison, A. The highest attack strength and weight loss were shown by Falcataria (L) Fosberg. In conclusion, thus, D. Indica, as well as A. Compared to the other wood types, falcataria (L) Fosberg has the highest and lowest natural resistance to marine borer attack. Teredo navalis (Teredinidae) and Martesia striata Linn were the different forms of species attacking the samples (Pholadidae).
