Prevalence and diversity of ectoparasites in scavenging chickens (Gallus domesticus) and their association to body weight. Biodiversitas 21: 3163-3169. Domestic chickens (Gallus domesticus) which are traditionally fed by scavenging on farms predispose them to ectoparasites infestation. In this study, a preliminary survey was conducted on the common ectoparasites on G. domesticus in the rural areas of Banyumas. The purposes of this study were to determine the diversity of ectoparasites, their prevalence, and their relationship to the chickens body weight. This research was conducted by the survey method from December 2019 to April 2020 in five villages around the city of Purwokerto, Banyumas District, Central Java, Indonesia viz., Kedungwuluh, Kedungwringin, Kutasari, Karangsalam, and Karanggintung. Data analysis was conducted by Shannon Wiener and Evenness indexes. Analysis of variance was used to calculate the difference in prevalence among sample locations. Regression correlation analysis was used to determine the relationship between prevalence and chicken body weight. The results showed that there were six ectoparasite species i.e., Menopon gallinae, Menacanthus cornutus, Lipeurus caponis, Dermanysus gallinae, Megninia ginglymura, and Haemaphysallis sp. parasitizing G. domesticus. The number of ectoparasite individuals among locations was significantly different (F 5.59 < 32.45; p <0.05). The most number of ectoparasite was found in Karangsalam (272 individuals). The most prevalent ectoparasite was M. cornutus (45%), followed by L. caponis (40%), and the lowest was M. synglineura (25%). Ectoparasite prevalence was associated with chicken weight loss (r = 0.98). The prevalence of ectoparasite of domestic chickens farm in the Banyumas Regency is classified as low but has the potential to influence body weight.

Abstract. Darsono, Riwidiharso E, Santoso S, Sudiana E, Yani E, Nasution EK, Aprilliana H, Chasanah T. 2020. Insect diversity in various distances to forest edge in small nature reserve: A case study of Bantarbolang Nature Reserve, Central Java, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 21: 4821-4828. A nature reserve is a conservation area with the objective of conserving the biodiversity of the flora and fauna within its boundaries. However, many nature reserves are fragmented into small extent and isolated from natural habitat, causing the so-called edge effect. This research aimed to investigate insect diversity across various distances to forest edge in small and isolated protected areas. Research was conducted in the Bantarbolang Nature Reserve, Pemalang District, Central Java, Indonesia. A survey was conducted to determine the diversity of insects, especially those from the Diptera (flies), Lepidoptera (butterfly), and Hymenoptera (bees and wasp) orders. The environmental parameters recorded were temperature, humidity, and flowering plant diversity and abundance. Line transects were laid at a length of 100 m, parallel to the forest edge at three different distance ranges from the edge: 0-50 m, 50-100 m, and 100-150 m. Species diversity was measured using the Shannon-Wiener index, evenness index, and Sorensen similarity index. Over the 4-month study period, 1713 individual insects from 63 species and from the following three orders were found: Lepidoptera (Rhopalocera; 33 species, 5 families, 932 individuals); Hymenoptera (20 species, 423 individuals) and Diptera (10 species, 7 families, 376 individuals). The highest diversity was found at the edge of the forest and the lowest at the distance of 100-150 m from the forest edge. While the study area can support a diversity of insects, especially pollinating insects, but it is unable to support the conservation of light-sensitive butterflies. The results of this study suggest that small nature reserve can support a diversity of pollinating insects, especially from the Diptera, Lepidoptera, and Hymenoptera. However, it has limited conservation potential because of the significant impact of forest edges on species composition, especially on specialist butterfly species with habitat in forest interior.
Lymphatic filariasis or elephantiasis is a vector borne disease caused by filarial worms that live in the lymph glands and lymph vessels of humans. W. bancrofti is the highest infection (90%) in the world. In urban areas, filariasis bancrofti was transmitted by Culex mosquitoes. Based on the health databases province, the number of people with filariasis in Central Java from 2011 to 2014 did not decline the cases. Based on the health profile of Regency / City in 2014, there are 23 cases of filariasis in Brebes regency, Central Java. One of the filariasis cases were found in the village of Dukuhturi, Bumiayu sub-district, Brebes. The survey of filariasis in Dukuhturi has never been done previously, therefore, this research conducted to observe of the biology of its vector and infection of filariasis in community. Culex sp. can be potentially as a vector is stated in many things, such as if was found microfilariae in the mosquito and the mosquito everbeen bite of the humans blood, it can be detected by the parousity mosquito in its ovaries. The aims of this research are to determine the parity rate of the mosquito, the prevalence of mosquitoes and villagers Dukuhturi were infected by microfilariae, and the density of microfilariae in respondents who infected by microfilariae. This research was conducted by using a survey method with cluster random sampling. Blood sampling performed by the ethical clearance and informed concent. The data were tabulated and analyzed descriptively based parousity of mosquitoes, the prevalence of mosquitoes and human who infected by microfilariae, and density of microfilariae in the human who infected by microfilariae. The result shows that parousity of mosquitoCulex sp. is high (94,45%) but the prevalence either in mosquito and respondent were 0%, so that the density of microfilariae is 0.Keyword: filariasis, parousity, prevalence, dencity of microfilariae.
