“…It was also not discovered at the MIN site because it is composed of gravel and coarse sand as waste from mining activities. This is in line with (Kuswanda and Setyawati 2016), which stated that M. javanica prefers areas with soft soil texture to make burrows for resting or foraging easily. This further strengthens the importance of the Mount Merapi ecosystem as a home for animals and plants of Java that are threatened with extinction.…”

Abstract. Sulaksono N, Pudyatmoko S, Soemardi, Wardhana W, Hadiyan Y, Nurvianto S. 2022. Response of terrestrial mammals to various types of disturbance in the Gunung Merapi National Park, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 23: 1635-1647. Human disturbance in the form of sand mining and grass harvesting activities in the area of Mount Merapi is an important component of the ecological process alongside the eruption. The group of terrestrial mammals (TM) is one of the essential elements that are affected by this disturbance. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to determine the response of the TM in various types of habitats in areas affected by eruption disturbances >20 years (ERL), eruption < 20 years (ERE), mining (MIN), grazing (GRA), and non-disturbance areas (NDA) in Gunung Merapi National Park (GMNP). Camera traps were used to identify the abundance of each TM. Vegetation data were also used to represent habitat conditions and were taken on a plot of 0.04 Ha. The analysis results showed that the highest abundance of TM is at the NDA site (14.4), while the lowest is at the MIN site (2.08). The site with the highest level of TM diversity is ERL (1.97) and the lowest is NDA (1.52). Furthermore, there is a significant difference in TM abundance between the MIN and ERL sites, which indicates that each disturbance reacts differently to the site. Based on the results, mining disturbances negatively influenced the abundance of TM in GMNP, therefore, managers need to regulate mining activities and make efforts to restore the affected areas.

“…These animals respond differently to various landscape compositions. According to Kuswanda and Setyawati (2016), Javan pangolins will not forage or nest in certain habitats, and they tend to use various types of land cover that are suitable for them. These habitat preferences likely occur because Javan pangolins are insectivorous animals and tend to spread according to their food sources.…”

“…Such habitats make it easier for Javan pangolins to detect ant holes and mounds because of the more open forest floor. Primary forests and community plantations are less preferred because of humid soil conditions (low temperatures) and the presence of predators (Kuswanda and Setyawati 2016). This may be a limiting factor in the pangolin distribution due to fewer such forest land types and presence of larger agricultural areas that use pesticides, which can reduce the soil pH.…”

Abstract. Withaningsih S, Parikesit, Nasrudin A. 2021. Correlation between landscape structure and distribution of Javan Pangolin (Manis javanica) in an extreme landscape. Biodiversitas 22: 920-932. The Javan Pangolin (Manis javanica) is a unique mammal with hard scales and can roll over when threatened. However, the study of Javan pangolin ecology, particularly using an ecological landscape approach, is limited. Here, a spatial analysis of the presence and distribution of Javan pangolins living in an extreme landscape in Rongga Sub-district, West Bandung District was conducted and was correlated to the landscape structure using a landscape metric approach. A descriptive method was used in conjunction with quantitative statistical analyses using simple linear regressions based on the Pearson correlation coefficient. The variables were features of the extreme landscape structure and the number of Javan pangolin animal signs at the sampling sites. The seven sample sites had variations in land cover classes, and the landscape structure affected the distribution of the Javan pangolins. The pangolin distribution showed a strong, negative correlation with the number of patch types (R2 = 0.628) and a weak, negative correlation with both the landscape heterogeneity (R2 = 0.012) and the percentage of forest cover (R2 = 0.136). Together, the landscape heterogeneity, the number of patch types and the percentage of forest cover negatively affected the distribution of Javan pangolins, showing a strong correlation (R2 = 0.799).
