Abstract: The purpose of this review is to provide knowledge about Mangrove Fern (Acrostichum aureum L.). This plant contains various chemical constituents such as phenolics, antioxidants, flavonoids, saponins, phenols, steroids, and active compounds of flavonoids in the form of kaemferol, quercetin. Phthalic acid ester compounds such as (2-methoxycarbonyl- 5-methylpentyl- 2 methylhexyl phthalates). Sterols in the form of phytosterols, such as stigmasterol, β-sitosterol, campesterol, cycloartenol, and 24-methylene cycloartenol. Terpenoids such as sesquiterpenes (2R, 3S) -sulfate petrosine C and (2R, 3S) -sulfated petrosine C. Pharmacologically these plants have been reported as cytotoxic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, analgesic, antiviral, antibacterial, and antiparasitic. In this review, mangrove fern has active compounds and pharmacology have been reported disease. However, it is necessary to do further research on sea ferns to determine the active compounds and another bioactivity.
