Abstract

In anthropogenic islands as urban parks, the fern species richness and composition may be determined ecologically by the quality of habitat, including area greenness, or biogeographically by area size. As the development of the theory of island biogeography also includes man-made parks, it is feasible to test whether area-species relationship applies in these urban parks, and is more pronouncedly evident compared to another ecological factor, such as NDVI. Total species number and composition of 8 urban parks in a kecamatan in Tegal Regency were collected and arranged in clustering methods to understand the similarity between parks. The similarity analysis result is important for the management of the parks in Slawi. The species richness data is subsequently tested using Pearson correlation and regression against NDVI and area sizes. The relation between NDVI and species richness is non-significant (p=0.058), while area size and species richness is significant (p=0.003). This signifies that the urban fern species richness is determined by area as biogeographical factor, compared to NDVI as ecological factor. This result is important for the purpose of designing and managing urban parks as evidently size is important in the effort of attracting native biodiversity into urban parks and in turn enhancing the well-being of urban population.

Abstract

Pteridophytes are able to live in a variety of habitats resulting in high species diversity. However, in monoculture vegetation such as tea plantations, species diversity can be reduced. This study aimed to compare the composition of the pteridophytes on the edge of the main road and the area in the tea garden at the Nirmala Tea Plantation, Kabandungan District, Sukabumi, West Java. Samples were collected using the exploratory method, then identified and observed for their morphological characteristics, and then the data were analyzed descriptively. The diversity of pteridophytes in the tea garden area (18 species) was lower than the main roadside tea plantation (25 species). Some species in the tea plantations were only found in the tea garden area (7 species) or on the side of the main roadside (14), and there were also species found in both locations (11 species). Pteridophytes in the study area is dominated by terrestrial ferns and the Polypodiaceae family. Soil moisture and wind speed are more influential factors on the diversity of pteridophytes than other abiotic factors measured. This result is new information on the diversity of fern in the Tea Plantation.
