Coral reefs ecosystem of Bangsring provide both commercial and non-commercial goods and services. Local fishermen rely on reef fisheries while tourism activities have been growing in this area. Seeing that the economic benefits derived from coral reefs are vital to the economies of Bangsring communities, economic valuation of these benefits is necessary to guide sustainable and wise use of these resources and to provide useful information for improved decisions. The research was conducted between June 29 and August 9 of 2015 aimed to estimate the total economic value (TEV) of coral reefs of Bangsring, Banyuwangi Regency, included passive use values and direct use values. The research was a participatory case study where primary and secondary data were collected using the purposive sampling technique. The study revealed that the estimated TEV of the coral reefs of Bangsring was IDR 38.2 billion per year or IDR 2.9 billion per hectare per year with tourism contributing 66 %or IDR 25 billion per year of the TEV. The healthy coral reefs of Bangsring support local communities and generate billions of rupiahs annually; therefore, it is critical to manage the coral reefs of Bangsring sustainably for current and future generations.Keywords: total economic value, Bangsring, coral reefs ABSTRAK Pantai Bangsring memiliki ekosistem terumbu karang dengan potensi pemanfaatan yang cukup beragam. Nelayan sekitar menggantungkan hidupnya terhadap perikanan terumbu karang, sementara di sisi lain pariwisata terus mengalami perkembangan di kawasan tersebut. Melihat potensi pemanfaatan yang dimilikinya, maka diperlukan suatu analisis ekonomi ekosistem terumbu karang yang ada di kawasan tersebut untuk mengetahui kondisi, bentuk pemanfaatan dan bentuk pengelolaan terumbu karang di kawasan tersebut. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan pada tanggal 29 Juni hingga 9 Agustus 2015 di Pantai Bangsring, Desa Bangsring, Kecamatan Wongsorejo, Kabupaten Banyuwangi. Bentuk penelitian ini adalah studi kasus partisipatif, dimana data yang diambil merupakan data primer dan sekunder dengan metode pengambilan data secara purposive sampling. Dari hasil penelitian didapatkan bahwa total manfaat ekonomi (Total Economic Value) ekosistem terumbu karang di kawasan Pantai Bangsring adalah sebesar 38.2 Miliar Rupiah Per tahun atau 2.9 Miliar Rupiah Per hektar per tahun. Nilai guna yang memiliki nilai ekonomi terbesar berasal dari pemanfaatan wisata sebesar Rp. 25.031.431.497,90 atau 60% dari Total Economic Value. Terumbu karnag Pantai Bangsring yang berada dalam kondisi sehat dapat mendukung perekonomian masyarakat lokal dan menghasilkan milyarak rupiah pertahunnya, sehingga, pengelolaan kawasan Pantai Bangsring yang berkelanjutan sangat dibutuhkan untuk menjaga kelestarian sumber daya terumbu karang yang ada pada kawasan tersebut.Kata kunci : total manfaat ekonomi, Bangsring, terumbu karang
merupakan pusat keanekaragaman siput laut Heterobranchia yang paling tinggi. Meski demikian, detail dari persebaran spesies dari kelompok hewan ini masih belum banyak diketahui. Di Indonesia sendiri, kajian mengenai persebaran spesies siput laut Heterobranchia masih dititikberatkan di kawasan Indonesia Timur, sementara kajian mengenai persebarannya di wilayah Indonesia Barat masih sangat terbatas. Di Selat Sempu, keberadaan siput laut Heterobranchia masih belum banyak dikaji secara ilmiah. Sejauh ini, keberadaan hewan ini di Selat Sempu hanya diketahui melalui koleksi pribadi para fotografer bawah laut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan kekayaan spesies siput laut di Selat Sempu disertai dengan gambar dan anotasi, sehingga kedepannya penelitian ini dapat dijadikan sebagai bahan informasi kegiatan makrofotografi bawah air maupun sebagai perbandingan identifikasi siput laut Heterobranchia dalam penelitian selanjutnya. Sebanyak 35 survei sporadik dilaksanakan dalam kurun waktu Oktober 2017 hingga Juli 2019 pada sebelas titik penyelaman di Selat Sempu. Dalam survei ini, ditemukan 45 spesies siput laut Heterobranchia, dimana 35 spesies berasal dari ordo Nudibranchia, enam spesies dari ordo Aplysiida (Anaspidea), dua spesies dari ordo Cephalaspidea, dan dua spesies dari superordo Sacoglossa. Survei awal ini diharapkan dapat mendorong penelitian lebih lanjut mengenai siput laut Heterobranchia di perairan Selat Sempu dan sekitarnya.
Cryptic marine fauna refers to organisms that live inside habitats that hidden from direct exposure to their outer environment. Its cryptic nature made these animals rarely observed, and hence understudied. Whereas, they are very popular among experienced divers alike as underwater macrophotography objects. The aim of this study is to assess the diversity of cryptic marine fauna on the proximity of coral reef area at Sempu Strait to bring up its underwater macrophotography tourism potential. While the definition of cryptic marine fauna itself could include any major group of marine organisms, we limit the extent of our study only into the four most popular animal groups in underwater macrophotography which are: fishes, sea slugs, arthropods, and flatworms. We conducted underwater surveys using roving diver technique spanning from October 2017 to June 2019 at eleven dive sites of Sempu Strait and yielded 84 species that consists of 45 species of sea slug, 29 Species of fish, 8 species of arthropods, and 2 species of flatworms. The overall fauna diversity shows that Sempu Strait has high diversity of sea slug and cryptic fishes, while the site-specific diversity shows that Stumbut dive site has the highest marine cryptic fauna diversity.
Abstract-Marine Protected Area (MPA) is one of the best tools for maintaining coastal fisheries sustainability. District of Trenggalek, which has 96 km coastline and 57 small islands, categorized as one of most productive coastal areas in Southern coast of East Java. On the other hand, the demand of MPA in this region become urgent as the decline on its coastal natural resources in recent years. Methods used in this research include: site suitability analysis using GIS multi-criteria analysis, divided into three criteria: ecology, socio-cultural and economy. Ecological survey and data ground check conducted in three locations, Bay of Panggul (Panggul), Bay of Sumbreng (Munjungan) and Bay of Prigi (Watulimo). Focus Group Discussion (FGD) with key stakeholders to obtain more precise information, continued with set of scoring and weighting (data analysis) to obtain MPA's site suitability and category. The results show high suitability areas for MPA includes Wonocoyo, Munjungan, Karanggandu and Karanggongso. Each site has a high value in ecological criteria (ecosystem and biodiversity), social criteria (social acceptance) and economic criteria (importance to species and value for marine tourism).
