Summary, etc. This study investigates the anthropogenic activities, water quality, and ichthyofaunal<br/>diversity of the Navotas Riverine Ecosystem. It examines the anthropogenic influences,<br/>analyzes the physicochemical and microbiological properties of water, identifies fish<br/>species, evaluates the water quality index, and determines ichthyofaunal diversity using<br/>various indices. Water samples and fish collections were conducted from January to April<br/>2024 at three sites. Key findings indicate that water quality parameters such as temperature<br/>(23.20-37.5°C), dissolved oxygen (6.22-7.84 mg/L), phosphate concentration (0.55-3.72<br/>mg/L), and fecal coliform (350-160,000 MPN/100 mL) failed to meet DENR standards for<br/>Class C water. The TDS (1153.33-10700 ppm) and conductivity (17653.33-21333.33<br/>μS/cm) were also elevated, indicating significant pollution. The study identified low<br/>ichthyofaunal diversity, with six native and one invasive fish species. A total of 269 fish<br/>were collected: 161 from Site 1, 46 from Site 2, and 62 from Site 3. The most abundant<br/>species was Scatophagus argus (19% occurrence), while the invasive Sarotherodon<br/>melanotheron ranked third (17% occurrence). Notably, pH (r = 0.753) correlated highly<br/>with nitrate concentration. S. melanotheron significantly correlated with pH (r = 0.602, p<br/>= 0.019) and nitrates (r = 0.555, p = 0.031). Lutjanus argentimaculatus also had significant<br/>correlations with pH (r = 0.527, p = 0.039) and nitrates (r = 0.651, p = 0.011). Conversely,<br/>S. argus had a negative moderate correlation with temperature (r = -0.529, p = 0.039) and<br/>conductivity (r = -0.536, p = 0.036). These correlations suggest that the water parameters<br/>significantly influence the diversity and abundance of fish in the river. The study concludes<br/>that the river's water quality is heavily influenced by anthropogenic activities which<br/>negatively affect ichthyofaunal diversity. Recommendations include continuous<br/>monitoring, gut and heavy metal analysis of fish, assessment of avifauna diversity, and<br/>strict implementation of conservation regulations.
