Abstract

Bondowoso located in a valley of Raung mountain roots in East Java, Indonesia. The eruption of Mt. Raung in 2015 not only cause loss of life, but also underlining the fact of unusual Snake Bite Cases (SBC), as recorded in the dr. Koesnadi Hospital. We conducted a thorough analysis of the SBC in 2015 along with the survey on all the incident location in January to March 2016. This study represented an improvement on the population of venomous snake in the agriculture area, and reached the highest peak before the eruption. The presence of continuous vegetation at the edge of watersheds become green corridor that functioned as the movement track for snakes in order to avoid the volcano effect.

Abstract

This study aims to quantitatively analyze the agricultural commodities in the rehabilitation area and their relationship qualitatively in an understanding of biodiversity conservation. The research was held in the Rehabilitation area, Donglo Block, Wonoasri resort, Meru Betiri National Park (-8.41158, 113.67849). Vegetation analysis was held by using a circle method with (r=17.1 m) for trees and 5 square method (1x1 m) for ground cover. We applied the point count method (r=20 m) in this study to observe diurnal birds. Mammal observations were held on each land with an area of 500 m2 by an observer. The observations showed that Jackfruit  Arthocarpus heterophyllus (highest INP = 81.46) provided perch for insectivorous birds: Sooty-headed Bulbul, Black-winged Flycatcher-shrike, and Collared Kingfisher. The average circumference of trees reaches 73 cm and height reaches 8.4 m. Peje Pueraria javanica is a ground cover plant that dominates among other commodities in the Donglo (INP=58.73). Wild boar Sus scrofa and long-tailed monkeys Macaca fascicularis appear in groups (5-20 individuals) as pests. Six of the 9 bird species identified as insectivores. White-bellied Sea-eagle has a role as a carnivore. Only a species has granivore roles.

Abstract

Avifauna inhabiting the mountainous forest ecosystem is severely threatened by anthropogenic disturbances, especially in the Java island of ­­Indonesia. Yet, efforts to monitor the avifauna diversity are lacking, including in one of the mountainous forest areas, Universitas Brawijaya Forest (UBF). In this study, information about diversity, community structure, feeding specialization, and conservation status of avifauna is presented. Observations were conducted from December 2019 to February 2020 on two designated tracks with different degree of disturbances. Data were analyzed based on their conservation status, local distribution, feeding specialization (Jaccard similarity index), species richness, total abundance, species diversity (Shannon-Wiener diversity index), and importance value index (IVI). A total of 51 species from 27 families were identified. Two species at risk (one Near Threatened and one Endangered) and 9 protected avifauna were noted. This study can be used as the baseline data for future conservation management in the UBF.

Abstract

Monitoring benthic communities under different agricultural practices and management could potentially become an important tool to evaluate ecosystem health and stability. Benthic macroinvertebrates have been widely used as water quality bioindicators. This study aims to analyze macroinvertebrates in rice field ecosystems affected by three types of management practices, including conventional, semi-organic, and organic. This study was conducted in Sumberjambe and Kemiri, Jember Regency. Macroinvertebrate samples were collected at three sampling stations for each type of rice field, giving out a total of nine stations. Through Ekman grab, samples were obtained and transferred into a jam jar filled with 70% ethanol using a brush. Six ecological indices were selected to describe the diversity of each station. The Principal Component Analysis (PCA) using PAST3 software provided the sample's preference towards the stations and the higher taxa (Class). We also analyzed the similarity of the macroinvertebrate communities between the sampling stations using the Jaccard Similarity Index (JSI). A total of 11 families and 4 classes of macroinvertebrates are recorded. The Shannon-Wiener index shows high diversity for stations with organic management practices (1.318), while the Evenness index shows the highest value for conventional stations (0.9449). The Jaccard similarity index value reports two stations with semi-organic stations as well as semi-organic and organic stations having the highest similarity (JSI = 76.47%), while the lowest similarity value is characterized for conventional and organic stations (JSI = 13.19%).

Abstract

The intensive use of agrochemicals in agricultural areas of Jember’s Regency presents a potential threat to the freshwater ecosystem’s community. The use of the benthic macroinvertebrates community may provide a key to monitor the extent of agrochemical impact to maintain valuable ecosystem services. Macroinvertebrates community structure and environmental factors were studied from September–December 2020 in Jember Regency by comparing three different types of agricultural rivers (organic, semi-organic, and conventional). Five community indices (taxa, individuals, Simpson dominancy index, Margalef species richness, and Shannon diversity index) were used to compare the macroinvertebrates community structure between sites. Using community composition and physicochemical properties (bare sediment, width, depth, water current, pH, conductivity, dissolved oxygen (DO), and temperature), we generated CCA triplot and correlogram plot to investigate the grouping and the correlation between variables and sites. Results on macroinvertebrate composition showed the importance of using sensitive taxa-group and community indices as an indicator of environmental changes. The family of Tipulidae, Naididae, Cysticidae, and Nereididae demonstrated relation to semi-organic agricultural rivers. Temperature and water current correlate to the presence of clean water indicator species such as Philorheitridae and Chironomidae, as observed in organic agricultural rivers. Conventional and semi-organic agricultural rivers were grouped and largely contributed by the 5 families including Ampullariidae, Pachychillidae, Baetidae, Enchytraidae, and Gomphidae. Correlogram plot suggests a complex interaction between macroinvertebrate community and environmental variables. It can be concluded that the intensive use of agrochemicals may lead to a detrimental change toward the diminished quality of freshwater community and environment.

Abstract

Agroforestry is a critical component of providing primary habitat for birds. Meru Betiri National Park (MBNP) establishes a diverse array of ecologically and economically significant trees while allowing local residents to farm beneath them, resulting in the formation of a complex agroforestry system. The purpose of this study is to examine bird communities and their tree-species preferences across tree height levels in MBNP's traditional agroforestry system. For vegetation analysis, we used the circle method, and for bird data collection, we used the point count method in a single circle approach. For both vegetation and bird communities, the ecological indices (the important value index, Shannon-Wiener diversity index, Margalef species richness index, and evenness index) were calculated. Birds' ecological roles and activity preferences were analyzed using principal component analysis and presented in stratified tree height levels. The results indicated that insectivores’ birds are the primary insect predators in the traditional MBNP agroforestry system (11 out of 16 bird families). Artocarpus heterophyllus was the most frequently visited tree species out of seven, which may have significant ecological value (for bird diversity) and economic benefits (for avitourism). Finally, one can deduce that the majority of bird activity occurs between 4 and 20 meters above the ground.

Abstract

Spodoptera litura larvae are polyphagous insects and have caused a lot of damage to various commodities. The application of Nuclear Polyhedrosis Virus (NPV) can be used as an alternative to control, other than by using chemical pesticides. This research was conducted to compare the mortality of S. litura with NPV treatment and compare them with chemical pesticides. NPV treatment with a concentration of 0.3% is used to soak the leaves to be used as larvae feed, as well as chemical pesticides the active ingredient Lambda-cyhalothrin (with a concentration of 0.05%). Observations were made at 2, 24, 48, and 76 hours after application. The parameters observed from the treatment included the percentage of mortality and morphological changes of larvae. Observation of the morphological changes of larvae was carried out by the parameters of slowing motion, discoloration, decaying, and severe shrinkage. Based on the results of the comparison, the percentage of mortality in the treatment of chemical pesticides is higher than the NPV. Death of 100% in Lambda-Cyhalothrin treatment was recorded in the first 2 (two) hours, while for NPV treatment is as much as 80%. The larvae with NPV treatment undergo a process of color change and the decomposition process is faster than the treatment of Lambda-cyhalothrin.
