The research about Diversity of Bird species at Subdistric Teon Nila Serua Seram Island was carried on several habitat types, conducted in August 2012. This research aims to compile the diversity of bird species at some habitat types and study the use of vegetation by the birds. The observation of the birds were used Variable Circular Plots (VCP), and Continuous Strip Sampling for vegetation observed. To count of the birds were used Point Count with Index Point Abundance (IPA), and to analysis of the birds diversities were used Index Shannon-Wiener. The result of research showed as much 48 bird species of 23 families; 28 species of 19 families were found in shrubs and garden, 31 species of 16 families were found in secondary forest, and 28 species of 16 families were found in primary forest. The highest bird diversity (H’ = 1,26) was found in the primary forest. The factors that affect the diversity of birds species are feed-producing vegetation, predators, human activity, and weather factors.
