The aim of this study was distinguish of biodiversity and abundance of brown algae in the coastal zone of the Bushehr province in the Persian Gulf during warm and cold seasons. The most and lowest density of brown algae was observed in the spring (33±20 Number in m 2 )and in the autumn(17± 9Number in m2 ), respectively. The highest density was belong to Cystoserriamyricawith(41±25 Number in m2 )and it also was dominant species among the six identified species of brown algae. The comparison result of diversity indices in different zone showed that the most amuont of Margalef index(0/438), and dominance and low diversity using primer software observed in within the mid tidal zone. The maximum value of the Shannon index(0/94) was belonged to the low and mid litoral zone. Seasonal comparison of diversity indices showed, the Most of species richness and dominance was revealed at autumn and highest indices of Shannon (0/76) was observed at spring. Totally, Species richness was the highest and lowest in the Nuclear power Plant and Ganaveh stations in two seasons respectively.
