Palembang: Penerbit & Percetakan Universitas Sriwijaya (UNSRI).The SPEECTRA (Special Area for Conservation and Fish Refugia) pond is a fisheries management model designed to save local fish in flooded swamp waters. The SPEECTRA pond also has the potential to support various types of vegetation that play an important role in maintaining water quality and ecosystem balance. The purpose of this study was to determine the structure of the plant community in the SPEECTRA pond. The study was conducted in July 2025 in three SPEECTRA ponds at the SFV Patra Tani BRPPUPP Installation, Muara Enim. Plant collection was carried out using a 5 x 5 m2 quadrat method with two replicates at each station. The types of plants collected were identified, then analyzed for density, diversity index, and dominance index. There were three classes and ten types of plants found in the SPEECTRA ponds. The plant density in the SPEECTRA ponds ranged from 5.02 to 16 ind/m2. The diversity of plant species at the site showed moderate values (0.96-1.41). No plant species dominated, but the Liliopsida family and the Elaeocharis dulcis or purun tikus (0.33) species were frequently found at the study site. This plant species is often found in flooded swamp areas due to its ability to act as a biofilter in water and provide shelter for aquatic biota. The existence of plant communities in the SPEECTRA ponds is very important in supporting the availability of food sources and habitats for fish communities.]]>
