Abstract. Nuraeni S, Prastiyo A, Larekeng SH, Ardiansyah A, Aldi, Jufri SW. 2025. Butterfly community structure in a rehabilitated post-mining tropical rainforest landscape, Sorowako, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 26: 4761-4774. Human disturbances, such as mining, can disrupt butterfly communities, which serve as important ecological indicators. This study evaluated butterfly diversity and richness in conservation and non-conservation zones within the mining area of PT Vale, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Data analysis involved diversity indices, t-tests, and Pearson correlations, with cluster analysis grouping sites and PCA exploring links between butterfly abundance and microclimatic factors. A total of 40 butterfly species belonging to five families, mainly Nymphalidae, Pieridae, and Lycaenidae, were recorded from 18 sampling transects during a four-week field period using standard transect and sweep net methods. The most frequently recorded species was Catopsilia pomona (Pieridae) with a relative abundance of 20.00%, followed by Ideopsis juventa (Nymphalidae) with 19.80%. Results showed that non-conservation sites had slightly higher diversity (1.43±0.67), richness (5.63±4.94), and evenness (0.48±0.13), while dominance was higher in conservation transects (0.52±0.32). This spatial comparison suggests that human-made habitats may support butterfly diversity but also lead to increased species dominance in more intact environments. The t-test showed a significant difference only in evenness. No significant correlations were found between biodiversity indices and environmental variables based on Pearson's analysis. Cluster analysis identified two main site groups: the first included most conservation transects (SC2, SC5, SC6) and some non-conservation transects (SN2, SN3), while the second contained most non-conservation transects and a few conservation sites (SC4, SC8), indicating overlapping habitat features. PCA revealed that light intensity explained 90.15% of the variation in the first principal component, and altitude explained 79.24% in the second, demonstrating their strong influence on butterfly distribution. These results provide baseline data on butterfly community structure and highlight the ecological differences between conservation and disturbed zones.

Abstract. Nadi JA, Nuraeni S, Budiaman, Prastiyo A. 2026. Morphological characters of the endemic honey bee Apis binghami binghami across different elevations in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 27 (2): d270220. https://doi.org/10.13057/biodiv/d270220. Apis binghami binghami is an endemic honey bee of Wallacea that plays a crucial role in pollination and maintaining tropical ecosystem balance. However, information on its morphological characters along the elevational gradient in South Sulawesi remains limited. Environmental heterogeneity associated with altitude may strongly influence morphological traits related to flight performance, foraging efficiency, and physiological adaptation. This study aimed to analyze the morphological characters of A. b. binghami across three elevational zones lowland (0-300 masl), midland (301-700 masl), and highland (>700 masl) in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Worker bees were collected using standardized bait traps, with 30 individuals sampled from each elevation. A total of 37 morphometric characters were measured using stereo microscopy. Data were analyzed using one-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), Principal Component Analysis (PCA), cluster analysis, and correlation analysis. The results revealed significant morphometric differences (p<0.001) among elevations, with increasing body size, wing length, abdomen, and sting dimensions at higher altitudes. PCA showed that the first principal component explained 80.22% of the total variation, primarily influenced by mesoscutum width, forewing length, including tegula, and abdominal length. Cluster analysis separated highland populations from lowland and midland groups, indicating clear morphological differentiation along the elevational gradient. These findings demonstrate pronounced morphological plasticity of A. b. binghami in response to altitude-related environmental conditions. The study provides the first comprehensive morphometric dataset for this endemic subspecies in South Sulawesi and offers important insights for conservation planning.

Abstract

This study aimed to identify plant species as pollen sources in honey and bee bread. Pollen sampling was conducted in Pepuro Barat Village, Wotu District, East Luwu Regency, South Sulawesi Province. Pollen samples in honey and bee bread were matched with fresh flower pollen around the meliponiary within a radius of 100 m. Pollen samples were extracted using the acetolysis method, and the pollen was observed under a light microscope at 400 times magnification, and the percentage was calculated. The results showed that T. biroi bees foraged at the closest distance of a radius of 5-18 m from the hive. The highest percentage of pollen in bee bread (62.3%) and honey (54.8%) came from coconut and cocoa in bee bread (40.2%) and honey (33.3%). The primary feed with the predominant pollen type category came from coconut, and the secondary pollen type came from cocoa. The pollen size in honey and bee bread is mostly medium granules. Information on appropriate feed sources can be a reference for plantation managers, such as coconut and cocoa plantations to be integrated with stingless bee cultivation. In addition to being able to produce honey products and, of course, being an important pollinator of plantation crops.
