Abstract

Bat Cave is a new tourist attraction located in Indarung Village, Lubuk Kilangan District, Padang City. Changes in habitat will affect the fauna in it, especially the herpetofauna, because herpetofauna is very sensitive to environmental changes. Herpetofauna research in this area has never been done. The research was conducted in December 2022, the observation method used was the transect method combined with the VES (Visual Encounter Survey). The purpose of this study was to determine the diversity of herpetofauna species in the Bat Cave area. Based on the research, nine types of herpetofauna were found, consisting of six types of amphibians and three types of reptiles. Total number of individuals obtained was 57 individuals. The most common type found was Limnonectes blythii, namely 23 individuals. In this study, one individual was found endemic to West Sumatra, namely Ichthyophis elongatus. Based on the research conducted, the diversity of herpetofauna species in the Bat Cave area is low.

Abstract

Bawean Island is a sheltered and clean coastal waters that can be exploited for mariculture, particularly seaweed. Due to its enclosed environment, the presence of different wastes, particularly microplastics, is deemed negligible. The purpose of this research is to investigate the prevalence of microplastics in numerous seaweeds on Bawean Island's southwest shore, as well as the viability of seaweed production. At a depth of 1-6 meters, samples of red, green, and brown seaweed were obtained and examined for microplastics by destroying the cell walls. At the two observation sites, water characteristics such as current, pH, salinity, TDS, DO, substrate, temperature, depth, and brightness were also monitored. Based on the results, the southwest coastal waters of Bawean were suitable for seaweed cultivation. Furthermore, the lowest-highest microplastic concentration was discovered in Gracillaria sp. 44±18 particles/100g, Halimeda sp. 52±16 particles/100g, Caulerpa sp. 94±31 particles/100g, and Sargassum sp. 251±59 particles/100g, with a form of microplastic found in fragments, fibers, and films. Various colors of microplastics were found. According to this study, seaweed can act as a vector for microplastics to infiltrate the food chain. This is indicated by the substantial accumulation of microplastics in cultivation potential zones of seaweed where there are fewer human activities. This microplastic accumulation could then occur at a higher trophic level, thus seaweed in nature must be quarantined and cleaned after cultivation to reduce the concentration of microplastic contamination.

Abstract

Tempeh is one of Indonesia traditional foods which made from fermentation processed soybean. There is wastewater from tempeh production that usually wasted to the river without further treatment. One of the parameters for wastewater is chemical oxygen demand (COD). Higher COD correlated to the higher risk to the environment. To decrease the COD level of tempeh wastewater valorization rambutan peels as adsorbent was done. The adsorbent was prepared by drying up and powdering rambutan peels. Boehm titration was used to characterize some functional groups of rambutan peels. Optimization of the contact time and the acidity level (pH) was done under room temperature condition. As results, the rambutan peel contains carbocyclic (0,0492%), alkaline functional group (0,0360%), phenol (0,0004%) and lactone (0,0002%).  Besides, the optimal condition for the reaction were at pH 11 for 90 minutes that can reduce COD level from 23.840 mg/L to 10.230 mg/L.

Abstract

Mangrove ecosystem has an important role for the coastal ecosystem in Sabu Raijua which is included in the TNP Laut Sawu conservation area. Its designation as a water conservation area indicates that the area is an important for the protection of fishery diversity and other marine resources. Mangroves play an important role for the diversity of marine biota because of their role as a breeding ground, foraging, and nursery ground for various types of marine biota. For this reason, the role of mangrove ecosystems as supporting conservation areas is very important. The functioning of the mangrove ecosystem can be seen based on the community structure and ecosystem quality conditions. This study aims to determine the condition of the community structure and health conditions of mangroves on Sabu Raijua Island. The survey location was obtained at 5 observation stations spread across Sabu Island. The results showed that 8 species of mangrove were identified with the dominance of Mangrove Lumnitzera racemosa with an IVI value of 191%. The percentage of canopy cover found ranged from 33 – 58% with an average value of 46%. Density ranges from 23 – 45 ind/plot, with an average of 31 ind/plot. The Mangrove Health Index (MHI) value in was 36.51 ± 14.05% which is included in the Moderate category. The high value of the standard deviation (14.05) indicates that there are still mangrove locations in Sabu Raijua that have poor conditions (Poor).

Abstract

Cilokaq is a traditional musical art of Sasak Tribe, which features several verses of songs with instruments such as gongs, drums, flutes, and gambus. The making of Cilokaq musical instrument uses plants that are obtained from nature, and this plant utilization should be well documented in order to assure the preservation of cultural heritage and also the plant resources contained in it. The purpose of this research is to identify the species of plants used in t Cilokaq musical instruments and to explore aspects of plant utilization and other ethnobotanical aspects of Cilokaq on Lombok Island. This research used qualitative and quantitative data collected through observations, interviews, documentation, and literatures study. Index of Cultural Significance (ICS) value was used to predict the importance value of each species involved in Cilokaq instruments. Informants were determined using snowball sampling technique. As a result, there were eight plants species categorized in 5 families used in making Cilokaq instruments, while there were 6 species belongs to 5 families used as offerings (andang-andang). Rotan (Calamus sp.) had the highest value of ICS (80), while Areca catechu, Gossypium herbaceum, Oryza sativa, Capsicum annuum, and Piper betle had the lowest value (8). Plants such as Ficus fistulosa, Calamus sp., and Schizotachyum blumei are species that begin to be difficult to find so that conservation action are needed in order to preserve the Cilokaq traditional art and plants species involved in it.

Abstract

Information on the existence of Parathelpusa spp crabs in the Banjaran River, Banyumas Regency is still very limited, so research is needed on this matter. The aim of this study was to identify and describe species richness, sex proportion, distribution, and abundance. Sampling was taken by Cluster Random Sampling, from 5 selected stations, repeated 7 times, an interval of 2 weeks, in the period August-November 2021. Samples were taken using a hand net, fresh and brought to the laboratory for identification. The physicochemical conditions measured were air temperature, water temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen and current velocity. The richness and abundance of Parathelpusa spp species obtained was calculated based on the number of species and individuals obtained, while their presence at each station became the basis for calculating the longitudinal distribution. Correlation between physico-chemical factors of the river with species richness and abundance was analyzed using Principal Component Analysis (PCA). During the study, 158 crabs were obtained consisting of Parathelpusa convexa and P. bogorensis. Both species were found at all sampling sites and P. convexa dominated the catch. Overall and in several locations, the number of male crabs caught was higher. The existence of each species in the Banjaran River is influenced by different physicochemical factors. P. convexa is affected by bottom substrate, air temperature, and current speed, while P. Bogorensi is affected by water depth, bottom substrate, and DO. These results can be used as a reference in selecting habitats to find P. convexa and P. bogorensis in river waters.
