Abstract

Lake Matano is one of the ancient lakes in Sulawesi where some endemic fish species of Telmatherina, Mugilogobius, Oryziasand Glossogobius matanensis lived. The presence of alien species can be on threat for the loss of biodiversity in fresh waters, including endemic fish in Lake Matano. The research aim to review the threat of louhan fish as alien species to endemic fish in Lake Matano. The study was conducted in Lake Matano at five stations in April and August 2015 namely Lawa, Nuha, Petea, Pantai Impian, and Pantai Kupu-kupu. Sam-ples were collected using experimental gillnet with mesh size of ¾; 1; 1¼; 1⅟2; 2; 2,5; and 3 inches. Fouteen species were found consist of 10 endemic species and red list.These were three of genus Glossogobius, seven species of Telmatherina, and four alien species of the carp (Cyprinus carpio), louhan, gourami (Trichopodus trichopterus), and tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). The most common species of endemic fish is T. antoniae. Louhan is the result of a hybrid species Amphilopus citrinellus x Cichlasoma trimaculatum. The abundance of louhan is 64 in April and 40 fishes in August, respectively at a time caught. The percentage ratio of louhan to endemic fish was of 8.6% and 18.3%. This indicated that the louhan fish tend to be invasive and certainly threatened endemic fish survival in this lake. The maturity of gonads of louhan is in the level of I - IV that enables the fish to reproduce quickly.

Abstract

The Lake Sentarum is a complex of floodplain lakes in the middle part of the Kapuas River system in West Kalimantan, Indonesia. The area has a great ecological and economic importance, however, the Sentarum lakes complex and its catchment area are generally threatened by deforestation, fire, monoculture agroindustry, and pollution.The objective of this research is to establish the hydrological characteristics of the Sentarum lakes area and to reveal the dynamics of aquatic habitat resulted from changing water levels. Data were collected during our field campaigns of 2013-2017 representing the seasons. The water level was measured using a pressure sensor placed at the Lake Sentarum National Park resort, while rainfall data were obtained from the data portal of the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission. Inundation monitoring was carried out using a time-lapse camera. A hydrological model is used to simulate water levels beyond measurement period. Water quality and fish sampling were carried out at the lake area. Vegetation observation was carried out at the selected riparian zone of the lake area using the line transect method. Water level records show that the Sentarum floodplain lakes have two peaks of inundation period following the bimodal pattern of rainfall in the equatorial Kapuas catchment. This water level dynamics induced changes in water quality, nutrient availability, vegetation cover, and fish diversity found in the Sentarum lakes area. Despite its seasonal changes, water quality of Sentarum lakes is generally good and suitable for aquatic biota. Fish diversity of the Sentarum lakes is relatively higher during high water periods.
