Abstract

Urban forest is a special area in anurban planning that plays a role in preserving the environment, as a recreation area and as one of the lungs of the city which helps in maintaining the health of city air. The existence of ants in the urban forest plays a role in maintaining the stability of the urban forest ecosystem which generally has both open and closed habitats. The purpose was to provide information regarding the description of ant species in open and closed habitats in the urban forest of the Cibubur Arboretum, East Jakarta. This research was conducted in the Cibubur Arboretum City Forest, East Jakarta. Sampling was carried out from 5─12 December 2022 using a pitfall trap which was placed in each habitat with a distance between traps of 5 m. As many as 14 ant species are tramp ants which have high adaptability to environmental disturbances. Of the 14 species found, 12 species were not found in closed habitats, namely, Camponotus arrogans and Polycharis becarrii. Pheidole parva was found in open habitats, meanwhile, in closed habitats, Odontoponera denticulata was found in the highest number.

Abstract

The Cibubur Urban Forest, designated by the DKI Jakarta Regional Government as a conservation area, serves as a vital ecological patch supporting diverse plant vegetation and associated organisms. This study investigates the composition and diversity of soil arthropods within the forest, focusing on their ecological roles across different habitat types. Field research was conducted in March 2024 using pitfall traps (15 traps per habitat, filled with 70% alcohol) deployed for three days. Specimens were collected from four distinct habitats and classified taxonomically. Results identified six arthropod classes: Arachnida, Chilopoda, Collembola, Crustacea, Diplopoda, and Insecta, with Insecta being the most dominant. A total of 16 orders were recorded, with Collembola, Coleoptera, and Diptera exhibiting the highest abundance, while Mantodea and Isoptera were the least represented. Habitat 1 showed the highest arthropod diversity, whereas Plot 2 had the lowest. Ecological analysis revealed arthropod functions as predators, decomposers, scavengers, herbivores, and carnivores, underscoring their critical roles in maintaining forest ecosystem stability. These findings highlight the Cibubur Urban Forest’s significance as a biodiversity hotspot and emphasize the need for habitat-specific conservation strategies to preserve soil arthropod communities and their ecological services.
