Abstract

The Branded Imperial Eooxylides tharis Geyer, 1837 is a lycaenid butterflies found in mainland Sumatra and Belitung Island, but no references provided information if this butterfly occur in Bangka Island. On 7 December 2024, few individuals of E. tharis were observed and documented in Pelawan Forest, Namang  Village, Central Bangka  District, Bangka Island, Sumatra. In addition, there are two reports from citizen science platform about the presence of E. tharis in Bangka Island. The status of which subspecies is discussed, and it is possible that population of E. tharis from Bangka Island represent a new subspecies. Keywords: Bangka, Branded Imperial, Eooxylides tharis, Rhopalocera, Sumatra.

Abstract

This study examines documented cases of humans being preyed upon or attempted to be preyed upon by Reticulated Pythons Malayopython reticulatus in Indonesia, spanning nearly a century from 1927 to 2025. Our study reveals 17 incidents, with snakes involved measuring between 5-8 meters in length. The victims' ages ranged from 13 to 90 years old, with 13 fatalities reported. Both males and females were affected, with 8 incidents involving men and 8 involving women. Sulawesi emerges as a hotspot for such encounters, accounting for a significant proportion of reported cases. This study highlights the importance of understanding human-python encounters and promoting a more harmonious coexistence between humans and wildlife in Indonesia. Keywords: human-wildlife coexistence, Indonesia, large snake, Malayopython reticulatus, Reticulated Python.

Abstract

Hostplants are important for butterflies becaue the plants are where they lay their eggs and catterpilars will to eat after. A study to about butterflies diversity and their host plant preferences has been carried out in July-September 2014 in Sriwijaya University Campus of Indralaya, South Sumatra. This research was to determine the preferences and identify the various species larval host plants and nectar sources of butterflies in Sriwijaya University Campus of Indralaya. We applied sampling points using purposive sampling method. Our findings suggest that there were 8 larval host plant family Achantaceae, Annonaceae, Cleomaceae, Fabaceae, Lauraceae, Malvaceae, Passifloraceae and Rutaceae. The nectar host plants are 8 Family of plants consisting of Achantaceae, Asteraceae, Loganiaceae, Malvaceae, Oxalidaceae, Passifloraceae, Rubiaceae and Verbenaceae. The highest percentage of host larvae in Family Rutaceae and Achantaceae of 23% and a low of Malvaceae by 7%. The highest nectar host is Family Verbenaceae by 32% and the lowest is Family Loganiaceae with 2%.

Abstract

Knowledge about flora biodiversity is an important component to determine the best strategy for policy makers in making decisions. A study on flora diversity with assesment on Sumatran Elephant habitats has been conducted in PT. Bumi Andalas Permai (PT. BAP). This area is a home range for Sumatran Elephant habitat in Sumatra. This research is to obtain basic information before carrying out other activities that might influence the composition of vegetation in the future. Determining the sampling location uses a purposive method, collecting data using observation plots which are expected to represent each existing vegetation type. Based on research conducted, there is only one species of plant at tree level, one species at pole level, and two species at sapling level, and 32 species at seedling level. Species diversity at the tree, pole and sapling level in study site. The species diversity in PT. BAP is included in low level category, under criteria H'=0, H'=0 and H'=0.69 respectively. Meanwhile, for the seedling/undergrowth level, H'= 3.05. There are very few species of plants at the level of trees, poles and stakes because the land is an open area in the form of bushes, thickets, swamps and rice fields on the side of an artificial canal.

Abstract

The research on the inventory of invasive alien species in the area of Universitas Indo Global Mandiri (UIGM) aims to identify the alien and invasive species present on campus, so that the potential impacts of their presence can be assessed. The method used in this activity is the exploration method, where the researcher will explore the area around the campus to collect data on plants. The results obtained from this research indicate that there are 77 plant species consisting of 40 families. The families with the highest number of species are Apocynaceae and Araceae (7 species). Among the species identified, there are 42 alien species, 26 native species, and 9 invasive species.

Abstract

The Punti Kayu Recreation Forest is a managed urban green space in Palembang City, South Sumatra Province, Indonesia. Over three survey periods in 2010, 2012, and 2019, a total of 16 butterfly species from five families were recorded. The Nymphalidae family was the most dominant, with an increasing trend in species richness observed over time. The findings highlight the importance of urban green spaces for supporting butterfly diversity and emphasize the need for continued conservation efforts, including the creation of butterfly-friendly habitats and protection of existing green spaces.
