Abstract: An abelian group $A$ is called strongly co-hopfian if for every endomorphism $\alpha$ of $A$ the chain $Im(\alpha )\supseteq Im(\alpha^{2})\supseteq Im(\alpha^{3})\supseteq Im(\alpha^{4})\supseteq \cdots $ is stationary. In this work we characterize some properties of the strongly co-hopfian abelian group. Then we show that the p-component of strongly co-hopfian abelian group is also strongly co-hopfian but for the torsion part we construct strongly co-hopfian abelian group whose the torsion part is not strongly co-hopfian.
