“…The ethnographic data we gathered about the Wandamen community, and the ecological data we collected about the Black Fruit were classified and integrated (Martin 2001). Simple descriptive statistics in accordance with the methods employed by Monteiro et al (2006) and Tamalene et al (2016) were used to interpret the information contributed by respondents regarding the way they construct local knowledge defining pre-harvest, harvest and post-harvest stages of Black Fruit utilization.…”

“…Worldwide, there has been a growing body of literature and studies on local ecological knowledge about the natural environment (Gerhardinger et al 2009;Himmi et al 2014;Iskandar et al 2016;Tamalene et al 2016). Nonetheless, there have been debates about the difficulties of integrating locally-based knowledge along with western knowledge as represented in the disciplines of anthropology, ethnobiology, biological conservation, and so on (Ludwig 2016).…”

Ungirwalu A, Awang SA, Suryanto P, Maryudi A. 2017. The ethno-techno-conservation approach in the utilization of Black Fruit (Haplolobus sp.) by the Wandamen people of Papua, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 18: 1336-1343. Identities and cultures are developed by societies through interaction with their environments. In caring for and using their environment, ecological knowledge is created. Deep knowledge of sustainable utilization and conservation of forest resources exist in Papua, but this traditional wisdom is poorly reflected in scientific literature. Such knowledge includes for example the adaptive traditional management of Black Fruit trees (Haplolobus sp.) by the Wandamen people of Papua, which is the subject of the case study reported in this paper. Our research focused on developing an understanding of how local knowledge about utilization, conservation, and protection of Black Fruit was constructed over time. It employed ethnoecology as the analytical lens. The study was conducted in Teluk Wondama District, West Papua. We found that the adaptive resource management of Black Fruit by the Wandamen is based on an approach which we have called â€œethnotechno- conservationâ€. This approach is an attitude of mind by which Wandamen communities manage their Black Fruit trees to meet the dual goals of fulfilling subsistence needs and conserving the resource. This adaptive strategy has evolved over time as a response to the dynamics of the environment and exemplifies the co-evolution of culture and environment that is a defining feature of the world we all inhabit. The traditional concepts and knowledge of the Wandaman elaborate conservation values in the utilization of the Black Fruit. These adaptive concepts and knowledge are codified in their beliefs, myths, and handed-down wisdom.

“…Today, ethnobotany has become increasingly popular in the development of health and conservation programs around the world. Ethnobotany is essential for biodiversity conservation (Martin 1995;Cunningham 2001;Alexiades 2003;Aryal 2009;Reta 2010;Pieroni et al 2014) and to fulfill need such as food, health, and culture (Tamalene et al 2016). Ethnobotany helps people collect information on how communities traditionally use certain plants as medicinal plants, what diseases can be treated and how it can be done (Ford 1978).…”

Biodiversitas 20: 1264-1270. Dayak Desa community has a long history of using medicinal plants as one of the methods to overcome health problems. Along with the advancement of science, the influx of foreign cultures and environmental degradation, traditional knowledge about medicinal plants and their utilization are only owned by the old generation. This study, therefore, aimed to identify medicinal plants used by Dayak Desa community who lives in Pakak Village. To collect information from the community, a survey was conducted in June 2017.
