Abstract

The rebuilding of the post-tsunami community residential in Banda Aceh   has had an impact on the emergence of Aedes habitat. The Aedes choose a container to breed based on biotic and abiotic factors that support their survival. This study aimed to the identification of Aedes species, location and type positive containers Aedes larvae at the area tsunami Banda Aceh. Methods an observational study of a cross-sectional approach involved 100 houses. Data larvae were collected using the single larvae method. Observations of containers were carried out in natural and artificial containers, indoors and outdoors. Positive containers Aedes larvae were recorded for the type of container and location found. The result of the study found two species of Aedes, there were Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. Larvae of Ae. aegypti was generally found in containers indoors (71%) and containers outdoors (29%). Larvae of Ae. albopictus were found in containers indoors (10%) and containers outdoors (90%). The types of positive breeding containers of Ae. aegypti found were bathtubs (71%), discarded tires (9%), plastic drums (5%), water tanks (5%), watering pots (5%) and flower pots (5%). The containers were observed found larvae of Ae. albopictus were the bucket (30%), plastic drum (20%), bathtub (10%), discarded tires (10%), pet drinking place (10%), mineral water jar (10%) and coconut shells (10%). Monitoring of containers indoors and outdoors that can hold water is important supports the eradication program breeding places of Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus.

Abstract

The disposal of detergent waste into water bodies leads to environmental problems. The use of detergents is increasing, and the variety of detergents available is also becoming more diverse. This study examines the mortality and behavior of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) in response to liquid detergent contaminants. The research was conducted from March to April 2023 at the Fish Behaviour Laboratory, Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences, IPB University. We used 154 individuals of Nile tilapia measuring 5-7 cm. A total of 90 individuals were used for the preliminary test and most of them died at the highest concentration of 100 ml/L within five minutes. Sixty individuals were used for determining LD50–96 and we found that the LD50–96 was 1.29 ml/L. The behavior of four individuals of tilapia was observed using focal animal sampling in four sublethal concentrations. The results show that the detergent contaminant inhibits oxygen diffusion and damages the physiological functions of the tilapia. The detergent concentration level also affects the operculum opening and closing behavior, movement, feeding response, and mortality.

Abstract

The Aedes sp. mosquito is the main vector of dengue fever that breeds in environments with suitable breeding sites. Mosques, as places of worship with bathroom facilities and water storage containers, have the potential to become breeding grounds for Aedes sp. mosquitoes. This study aims to identify the presence of Aedes sp. larvae in mosque bathrooms in Banda Aceh during Ramadan 2025. A total of 45 mosques across nine districts were surveyed using a random sampling method (data representation with equal chances of selection). Observations focused on water storage containers, ventilation, lighting, and the availability of container covers. Larvae and water samples were collected and analyzed in the laboratory. The findings confirm the presence of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus larvae, with a higher prevalence of Aedes aegypti due to its preference for indoor breeding sites. Poor ventilation, inadequate lighting, and uncovered water storage containers were key factors contributing to mosquito breeding. These results highlight the potential risk of dengue transmission in mosques, emphasizing the need for improved water management and preventive measures to ensure worshippers' safety. Strengthening mosquito control efforts in places of worship is essential to minimize dengue fever outbreaks, particularly during periods of increased human activity such as ramadan.

Abstract

Ground-dwelling insects play an important role in the decomposition of soil organic matter and serve as bioindicators of environmental degradation, which is reflected by the decline in insect diversity. This study aimed to determine the similarity and diversity levels of ground-dwelling insects and to produce an identification book across different habitat types in Lembah Sabil, Aceh Barat Daya. An exploratory survey method with purposive sampling was applied. The research subjects were all ground-dwelling insects inhabiting various habitats, with observations conducted at four sites in Lembah Sabil. Data were analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively. The results showed that insect similarity was 59% between coffee plantations and secondary forests, 29% between coastal forests and nutmeg plantations, 36% between coastal forests and coffee plantations, 29% between coastal forests and secondary forests, 42% between coffee and nutmeg plantations, and 48% between nutmeg plantations and secondary forests. Diversity levels were categorized as moderate, with index values of 2.69 in coastal forests, 2.54 in coffee plantations, 2.25 in nutmeg plantations, and 2.43 in secondary forests. The feasibility test of the identification book yielded a score of 76%, indicating it is suitable for use. In conclusion, the similarity of ground-dwelling insects in coastal forests was low, while coffee plantations, nutmeg plantations, and secondary forests exhibited higher similarity. The diversity levels across all four habitat types were classified as moderate
