Abstract

Orchids are one of the largest and globally distributed plant families. Indonesia has the most types of orchids, estimated around 20% from the total species across the world. Mainly orchids used as an ornamental plant. This research aimed to elucidate another potential of orchids as possibly for herbal medicine plant. The potential of orchids as herbal medicine has been known for a long time, but there is lack of well-documented research. The research method used in this research is exploration on predetermined research sites that were conducted in Mount Tilu, West Java on 2022. Observation data of orchids were collected on the sites and the analysis was carried out in a qualitative descriptive approach by describing the data from the research results and comparisons were made through a literature review. Based on the research results, we found about 31 species from 28 genera consisting of 24 epiphytic orchids and 7 terrestrial orchids in the Mount Tilu Kuningan area, West Java. There are 4 endemic species categorised in Java; Chilochista javanica, Crepidium koordesii, Crepidium junghuhnii, and Taeniophyllum biocellatum.

Abstract

Boyong River is upstream of Code River and one of the areas potentially affected by volcanic mudflow and pyroclastic flow of Mount Merapi. Boyong River is the upstream of Code River that passes through Hargobinangun Village to Sinduharjo Village. Vegetation data collection in this study used the Belt Transect method as far as 50 meters. Each station consisted of 10 continuously placed plots, and vegetation measurements were taken on each 10 × 10 m plot. Data were analyzed using the Spatially Explicit Individual-based Forest Simulator (SExI-FS) software version 2.1.0. The diversity of riparian vegetation in the Boyong River was found to be as much as 29 species. Albizia falcataria had the highest IVI rate, with 96% and 63% at stations 1 and 3, respectively.Swietenia mahagoni had the highest IVI rate at station 2, with 91%. The Boyong River has varied canopy stratification, and there is one location that has complete strata (strata A, B, C, and D), namely Candibinangun Village, while Hargobinangun Village and Sinduharjo Village only have three canopy strata. Canopy closure in the Boyong River still left canopy gaps that allowed other plants to grow and occupy empty space, while Candibinangun and Sinduharjo villages formed layers that overlapped each other.
