Tidung Kecil Island had potential as bird's habitat because the condition of forest better than Tidung Besar. Bird's habitat in Tidung Kecil Island also had bad potential because of logging and burned in vegetation areal for build and for activity of tourism. Study about bird were very important because we could know the change that happened in one ecosystem. The purposed of this research was to know the variety of bird and usefully of vegetation as bird's habitat in Tidung Kecil Island. This researched hold on January until March 2015 in Tidung Kecil Island, Thousand Island, Jakarta. This research carried out by combination of IPA (Index Point Of Abundance) method and transect method that divided into 9 point along transect. The result of researched were 29 species of bird from 19 family with IPA method and 31 species of bird from 20 family with Mackinnon list method. Composition of bird species include of 24 resident bird species and 7 migrant bird species. The number of variety species index was 2,39 (medium). Evenness index value was 0,7 (high). The number of species richness was 4,31(high). The species of tree that often used by bird was Casuarina equisetifolia (76,47%). The most used base of vertical level tree by bird in Tidung Kecil Island was level three. Conservation status in Tidung Kecil Island based on IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources) were 100% (least concern). Based on Government Regulations No.7 year 1999, there were 7 species of bird that were protected. There were no species of bird that were protected by CITES (Convention on International Trade of Endangered Spesies of Wild Fauna and Flora).
Bat (Chiroptera) is one of mammals that can fly and has population decreased, this caused by habitat loss, trade, and excessive arrested. This research purposed to know about species diversity of bats in Indonesia, especially in Camp Leakey, Taman Nasional Tanjung Puting (TNTP), Central Kalimantan. This research conducted on area study of Camp Leakey, TNTP, Central Kalimantan, at September untill November 2015. Method of this research are descriptive method with misneting technique. Result of this research indicated that studi area of Camp Leakey, Taman Nasional Tanjung Puting, Central Kalimantan have a high species diversity. Homogenity index were quite high or moderate and inversely proportional to dominant index score were quite low. Keywords : diversity, bat, misneting, Taman Nasional Tanjung Puting PENDAHULUANIndonesia memiliki keanekaragaman hayati tinggi yang mencakup keanekaragaman flora, fauna dan mikroba (Primack et al, 1998). Tingginya keanekaragaman hayati ini dikarenakan wilayah Indonesia yang terletak di daerah tropik, memiliki berbagai macam tipe habitat, serta berbagai isolasi sebaran berupa laut atau pegunungan (Noerdjito dan Maryanto, 2005). Salah satu keanekaragaman hayati yang mencakup fauna adalah kelas mamalia, yaitu khususnya kelelawar. Di dunia terdapat 18 suku, sekitar 192 marga dan 977 jenis kelelawar (Nowak 1999 dalam Suyanto 2001).Merupakan jumlah terbesar spesiesnya setelah ordo dari hewan pengerat (Rodentia) dalam kelas mamalia. Indonesia kurang lebih memiliki 205 jenis kelelawar yang terdiri atas 72 jenis kelelawar pemakan buah (Megachiroptera) dan 133 jenis kelelawar pemakan serangga (Microchiroptera), atau sekitar 20% dari jumlah jenis di dunia yang telah diketahui. Terdapat sembilan suku dari jenis-jenis ini termasuk dalam 52 marga. Kesembilan suku ini masingmasing dibahas secara terpisah, yaitu Pteropodidae, Megadermatidae, Nycteridae, Vespertilionidae, Rhinolophidae, Hipposideridae, Emballonuridae, Rhinopomatidae, dan Molossidae (Suyanto 2001).Menurut Suyanto (2001), keberadaan kelelawar ini sangat penting bagi kehidupan masyarakat di Indonesia karena peranannya sebagai pemencar biji buah-buahan (jambu air, jambu biji, kenari, keluwih, sawo, duwet, keruing, cendana, dan lain-lain), sebagai penyerbuk bunga tumbuhan yang bernilai ekonomi (petai, durian, bakau, kapuk,
Studies about reptiles in of part of Java have been poorly known. Meanwhile, most of studies about diversity of reptiles which have been published were incorporated with amphibians, and nearly all just concern in unraveling the diversity of amphibians. In Bodogol, Gede-Pangrango National Park, survey about reptiles diversity have been done frequently, but just little research that have been published and most of all are short term research study. Hence, a research that concern in studying diversity of reptiles become valuable to carry out. Here, we studied the diversity of reptiles in Bodogol during November 2011 to March 2012. Reptiles' species were collected by searching in available trail, but Tangkil, Cipanyairan I, and Cipanyairan II. Total of twenty three species of reptiles were found, encompassing six families (Colubridae, Elapidae, Viperidae, Scincidae, Agamidae, and Gekkonidae). Based on this result, we assume that Bodogol is good habitat for reptiles because it serves high diversity of reptiles.
Abstract Frigatebird is one of seabird species found in Pulau Rambut Wildlife Reserve (SMPR). The bird activities include roost in fish pole, flying, foraging in the ocean and also roosting in SMPR at night. The aim of this research was to know roosting site used by frigatebird while at SMPR. This research was conducted in SMPR, Jakarta on August and September 2010 by descriptive method and survey techniques. Data was collected directly on the object of research. Frigatebird population was calculated directly by counting individuals one by one as they flew low in the air over SMPR. Frigatebird roosting site was also researched directly by observing frigatebird when going to roost. Furthermore, vegetation analysis was also conducted on trees in roosting site. Based on our obsevations, the population of frigatebird obtained in SMPR ranged between 87-193 birds. Frigatebird utilize Sterculia foetida tree to be used as a place to roost. This roosting site located in mixed secondary forest to the west and south SMPR close to mangrove forest. Average of height and diameter of S. foetida tree used to roost is 23.47 m and 42.26 cm. There were commonly 3 species of tree of frigatebird roosting site namely Ficus sp. (INP 16.91%), Allophylus cobbe (INP 16.78%) dan Diospyros maritima (INP 14.23). Key words: frigatebird, Pulau Rambut Wildlife Reserve (SMPR), roosting site
Slow loris are Indonesia’s primate that is protected and in threat. Slow loris existence in the nature are very thoughtful due to lack of habitat, illegal hunting, and illegal trading. This is because the lack of people awareness about slow loris existence so that it is necessary to held an activity that can improve conservation awareness like Slow Loris Awarenessthat held by Yayasan IAR (International Animal Rescue) Indonesia. The aim of this research was to know the comparison of junior high school student comprehension about slow loris conservation based on participation on Slow Loris Awareness activity. This research was conducted atjunior high school 14 of Jakarta on July 2012. The method of the research was quasi-experiment with nonrandomized control group, pretest-posttest design. The research sample was student of class VIII B and VIII D with 32 students each. The instruments that used were comprehension test question. The analysis prerequisite test was normal and homogen. This research showed that the average of pretest score for experiment class was 61,58 and postest score was 75,18, meanwhile the average of pretest score for control class was 63,05 and postest score was 68,38.The hypothesis was tested using t test showed reject H0, It could be conclude that the comprehension about slow loris conservation on junior high school students who participated in Slow Loris Awareness activity were better than students who did not participate.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
