Action note: In: Summary: ABSTRACT: This study was all about the inventory of gastropods in Romblon, Romblon Island. The two chosen sampling sites were Bargy. Calabogo, Romblon, Romblon and Bang-og Island, Lonos, Romblon, Romblon. This study aimed to determine the different species of gastropods that can be found in the sampling site. It also aimed to identify the morphological characteristics that can be used in constructing a dichotomous key. Plot sampling was the method used in establishing the stations depending upon the substrate types (rocky, sandy, seagrass) that can be found in the sampling site. There were three plots for each station per substrate. The number of plots for each station depended upon the size of the substrate. Each plot was established parallel to the shore with a measurement of 50 by 10 meters with an equal interval of 10 meters. The gastropods collected are then separated, cleaned, preserved and identified up to the species level. The total numbers of pecies present was counted for each site. A dichotomous key was also constructed up to the family and species level of organization. A total of one hundred, twenty-nine individual gastropods belonging to forty-three species under twenty families were collected in Bang-og Island, Lonos, Romblon, Romblon. Cypracea annulus, Nerita albicilla. Nerita polita, Cerithium columna were the species found widely distributed. On the other hand, a total of one hundred forty-one individual gastropods belonging to forty-five species under twentyone families were collected in Barangay Calabogo, Romblon, Romblon. Cypraea annulus, Strombus labiatus labiatus, Nassarius luridus were the species found widely distributed. The morphological characteristics used in constructing the dichotomous key up to the species level of organization were the characteristics of the shell's shape, size, color, umbilicus, aperture, outer lip, outer surface, columella, siphonal canal, and spire.
