Abstract

As the definitive regency, Supiori has been separated from Biak Numfor Regency, since 2003. Most of the Supiori Regency area is the Mount Supiori Nature Reserve Area which was stipulated according to the Decree of the Minister of Forestry 525/Kpts/Um/7/82 dated 21 July 1982. In line with the development plan in Supiori, conflicts of interest over the utilisation of forest areas are unavoidable. This has an impact on the condition of existing biodiversity, especially mammalian taxa which are at high risk of being threatened with extinction. Therefore, an assessment of the existence mammalian taxa and their interaction with the potential of forest areas has been carried out using the High Conservation Value - HCV concept approach. Observations were made directly and indirectly on the presence of this mammal species during October 2018. This study succeeded in identifying 16 (sixteen) mammal species belonging to 8 (eight) families that were observed and detected signs of their presence. In accordance with the HCV1 criteria, the forest area in Supiori, both primary forest and secondary forest that has been converted into community plantations, is able to create new habitats for mammal species because there is sufficient food availability there. According to the HCV2 criteria, the observed forest area is still relatively good in supporting the presence of a number of animal species, including groups of mammals. Meanwhile, based on the HCV3 criteria, the karst cave spot in the area is not only a source of water but also a habitat for bats (Emballonura beccarii, Aselliscus tricuspidatus). Considering that most of the area is the area of CA Supiori, the regional development plan for Supiori Regency should provide options for rationalization and changing the status of the area. Therefore, intensive studies need to be carried out to determine which areas in and around the area will be utilized for development activities, and other areas that will be maintained by changing the status of protected areas for the purpose of conserving endemic flora and fauna with high conservation value.

Abstract

This study aims to preserve the diversity of orchid species that are used as useful plants and have economic value. The methods used in this study are exploration, observation, species description. The technique used in sampling was carried out purposively when orchid species were found in the roaming area which was carried out randomly in an area of 10 hectares. It was revealed from the results of observations that 128 individuals were collected which were classified into 25 genera and 31 species were identified. The observed orchid habitus lives as epiphytic and terrestrial or lithophytic plants. Generally, species that live as epiphytes are more often found. Orchid habitats can be significantly distinguished in lowland tropical rainforests and swamp forests with humidity ranging from 80-85% and temperatures between 26-28% at night and 30-34% during the day. Topographic conditions are relatively flat to a slope of 45%. Vegetation cover is quite dense, but in some location, there are gaps in the canopy, providing opportunities for breakthroughs in sunlight intensity during the day. Conservation efforts are carried out on species that are often hunted and used as ornamental plants such as Bulbophyllum phalaenopsis, Coelogyne beccarii, Coelogyne asperata, Dendrobium antennatum, Dendrobium macrophyllum, Dendrovium shiraishii, Dendrobium spectabile, Grammatophyllum scriptum, Grammatophyllum speciosum and Pomatocalpa marsupiale. The Conservation Status of the collected species is generally categorized under IUCN Redlist as Data Deficiency (DD) and Least Concern (LC) clusters .
