Abstract

Traditional herbal medicinal plants are natural ingredients that come from plants and have been used for generations for medicinal purposes. This study aims to analyze the utilization of plants as traditional medicinal materials by the community in the Kerandangan Nature Park, West Lombok. Using a descriptive qualitative method through observation and interviews, it seeks to obtain in-depth information about the community's behavior in utilizing plants as medicine and employs the Shannon-Wiener diversity index to analyze the species diversity of medicinal plants. The study found 20 plant species from various families such as Zingiberaceae, Piperaceae, Rutaceae, Fabaceae, Lamiaceae, Asteraceae, Poaceae, Verbenaceae, Rubiaceae, Myrtaceae, and Caricaceae being used by the community to treat various diseases. The diversity level of medicinal plant species was categorized as moderate. The commonly used parts of the plants include leaves, rhizomes, fruits, stems, flowers, and roots. This indicates that the community of Dusun Kerandangan still utilizes medicinal plants to cure various ailments that have been traditionally used for generations, despite the ongoing development of modern medicine.

Abstract

The intensive harvesting of Mangrove Crabs (Scylla serrata) has led to a significant decline in the population density of Scylla serrata in mangrove areas. Overfishing has resulted in a decrease in both the number and size of individual Mangrove Crabs and has altered the structure and composition of the population. This research aims to understand the morphometric characteristics of Scylla serrata, which will help sustain the population and protect mangrove areas as the native habitat for Scylla serrata and other organisms. Therefore, this study contributes to conservation and sustainable management efforts to ensure biodiversity. This type of research is descriptive-exploratory and aims to identify and analyze the size variations of Scylla serrata. The study was conducted at four points in the Essential Ecosystem Area (EEA) of Bagek Kembar Mangrove Forest, Sekotong, West Lombok, in both natural and rehabilitated zones. The results of this study found that the ratio of female to male Mangrove Crabs is 36:32, with females being more dominant in number. The morphometric characteristics of Mangrove Crabs in the Bagek Kembar Essential Ecosystem Area showed relatively uniform sizes across all sampling points, but some characteristics such as dactyl length, weight, and dactyl width showed significant differences, which may be influenced by the physiological condition of Scylla serrata and habitat conditions.

Abstract

Taman Wisata Alam (TWA) Kerandangan memiliki fungsi sebagai tempat pelestarian alam dan juga dimanfaatkan untuk kegiatan pariwisata dan rekreasi alam. Salah satu potensi yang dimiliki oleh TWA Kerandangan adalah penangkaran kupu-kupu jenis Troides helena, yang merupakan salah satu jenis kupu-kupu yang dilindungi. Kegiatan ini bertujuan untuk mengenalkan konsep ekowisata melalui kupu-kupu Troides helena kepada anak-anak yang tinggal di sekitar TWA Kerandangan. Pelaksanaan Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat terdiri dari tiga kegiatan, yaitu pengenalan dan morfologi kupu-kupu secara umum dan morfologi Troides helena, praktek menangkap kupu-kupu dan lomba mewarnai kupu-kupu. Pengenalan morfologi kupu-kupu sebatas dijelaskan bagian-bagian tubuh kupu-kupu. Anak-anak praktek menangkap kupu-kupu kemudian diamati bersama berbekal dari materi yang telah dipelajari sebelumnya, kemudian dilepaskan kembali. Kegiatan dilanjutkan dengan lomba mewarnai kupu-kupu. Anak-anak diminta mewarnai kupu-kupu berdasarkan hasil pengalaman praktek penangkapan kupu-kupu yang telah dilaksanakan.
