The journal publishes critical reviews, original research papers, short communications, notes and comments covering all aspects of ethnobiology. Journal of Tropical Ethnobiology readership is as wide and diverse as ethnobiology itself, with readers spanning from both the natural and social sciences. Not surprisingly, a glance at the papers published in the Journal reveals the depth and breadth of topics, extending from studies in archaeology and the origins of agriculture, to folk classification systems, to food composition, plants, birds, mammals, fungi and everything in between. Research areas published in Journal of Tropical Ethnobiology include but are not limited to neo- and paleo-ethnobiology, zooarchaeology, ethnobotany, ethnozoology, ethnopharmacology, ethnoecology, linguistic ethnobiology, human paleoecology, and many other related fields of study within anthropology and biology, such as taxonomy, conservation biology, ethnography, political ecology, and cognitive and cultural anthropology. Journal of Tropical Ethnobiology does not limit itself to a single perspective, approach or discipline, but seeks to represent the full spectrum and wide diversity of the field of ethnobiology, including cognitive, symbolic, linguistic, ecological, and economic aspects of human interactions with our living world. Articles that significantly advance ethnobiological theory and/or methodology are particularly welcome, as well as studies bridging across disciplines and knowledge systems. Journal of Tropical Ethnobiology does not publish uncontextualized data such as species lists; appropriate submissions must elaborate on the ethnobiological context of findings.

Abstract

Baccaurea is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the Phyllanthaceae family. This genus consists of approximately 43 species, these species are generally known as fruit-producing plants. As germplasm found growing in Indonesia, this genus is also part of the Bogor Botanical Gardens collection. The main duties and functions of the Botanical Gardens are conservation, research, education, tourism and environmental services. Research on the species of Baccaurea spp and its benefits in the Bogor Botanical Gardens is based on more than ten years of direct observation data of all members of the Baccaurea family in the garden, as well as data stored in the Registration Unit and plant collection catalog. This research aims to reveal its diversity, conservation and potential at the Bogor Botanical Gardens. Bogor Botanical Gardens were recorded to have collected 15 species of Baccaurea and 3 still sp., with 52 individual specimens, all of which were trees. Most of the collections are native to Indonesia, 92.30% (48 specimens) and only 4 specimens (7.70%) from abroad. Among the original Indonesian collections were dominated by plants from Sumatra 44.23% (23 specimens), Kalimanatan 26.92% (14 specimens), Java 7 specimens (13.46%), Maluku 3.84% (2 specimens) and Sulawesi 3,84% (2 specimens). Judging from the potential of these species, they can be developed as traditional medicinal plants (10 species), the source of foodstuffs are 15 species of fruit, 1 species of spice, 2species of beverage ingredient and 2 species of food mixture. As wood for buildings and household items (15 species), dyes (3 species). From the number of plants in the Baccaurea collection, it is recorded that there is an old collection plant that is over 75 years old, Baccaurea javanica Mull. Arg., Baccaurea racemosa (Reinw. Ex Bl) Mull. Arg., And Baccaurea reticulata Hook. F.

Abstract

One of the weaknesses in introducing ethnobiology in the learning process is the lack of innovative learning media used. Based on this, it is necessary to develop an interesting medium in introducing ethnobiological research in learning. One of the innovative media that can be used is comics. The purpose of this research is to produce ethnobiological comics, especially ethnobotany which have good quality based on the results of expert judgment and field trials. This research is mixed-method research with two stages, namely the implementation of a project-based learning model between students who take local potential-based learning media development courses, and students who take ethnobotany courses. The next stage is the stage of media development, starting from collecting data from students who take ethnobotany courses, then the results of the research are developed into comics by students who take local potentialbased learning media development courses. The results of this study obtained data that the topics chosen by the students are poison plants for the hunting of the Dayak Lundayeh Tribe, medicinal plants of the Tidung Tribe, ethnopteridology of the Madura Tribe, and traditional ceremonial plants of the Tidung Tribe. The results of the comics that were developed based on expert judgment were valid. Meanwhile, the results of the field trial were feasible.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to obtain information on the number of types of epiphytic moss in the Kendeng Mountains in the Halimun Salak Mountain National Park, West Java and to determine the function of epiphytic moss as an environmental bio-indicator. The research method used is descriptive qualitative by means of primary data collection through observation and interviews, while secondary through documentation. The results of research conducted in the area of Mount Halimun Salak National Park, there are 16 species. The types found at the two stations are classified into 14 tribes. The epiphytic moss substrate in the Halimun Salak Mountain National Park is on weathered logs and tree bark. The type of epiphytic moss (Bryophytes) in the Halimun Salak Mountain National Park which has the highest importance is Fissindens viridulus with a value of 48.9. The type of moss with the lowest importance is Scapania sp. with a value of 1.72. The diversity of moss in the Mount Halimun Salak National Park area is 2,149. The diversity index value in the Mount Halimun Salak National Park area is included in the moderate category, because it has a value of 1≤ Ĥ ≤ 3.The diversity of moss species (Bryophytes) on various substrates found in the Mount Halimun Salak National Park area is moderate, both on terrestrial substrates. (diversity index value 1.276) and arboreal (diversity index value 1.851). This shows that the diversity of arboreal substrates is higher than terrestrial. The physical form of moss is used as an environmental indicator and also for gardening and greenhouses. Another thing that has been done with this moss is to use it as a medicinal ingredient.

Abstract

Only few studies have investigated the use of wild animals, especially amphibian and reptile in big cities in Indonesia. We conducted market survey in Jakarta and Bandung to see the use of herpetofauna (amphibian and reptile) at traditional medicine sales centers by interviewing traders and consumers to get in-depth information on the species used and volume. There are 16 species of herpetofauna used as traditional medicines which consist of two species of amphibians and 14 species of reptiles. Most frequent used reptiles are snakes (cobra and reticulated python), monitor lizard and soft-shelled turtles, with main use is to treat skin diseases and increase stamina. Application of herpetofauna as a medicine could be in the form of oral consumption (i.e. satay, dry meat, frog leg meat, soup, capsules, flour) or topical medication (oil, ointment).

Abstract

Homegardens management, especially in rural areas of Indonesia, has yet to receive comprehensive attention, even though its benefits have been consciously felt. The Bonokeling society have traditional ecological knowledge in managing their homegardens which is interesting to study furthermore. This research aims to provide the comprehensive study about Bonokeling society on the management, roles, benefits, and prospects of homegardens development in their life. Data were collected by a qualitative and quantitative method such as measuring the area of the homegardens, observation, inventorisation, and open-ended interviews. The highest number of plant species varieties is used as food crops as many as 119. The results of this study showed that homegardens has been managed with the concept of space division. Homegardens is carried out in a simple manner, but optimizes its role as a productive ladscape that has multifunctional benefits and is not only limited used for plant cultivation. The cultivation of more varied species as food crops has been carried out as one of the adaptation strategies to support for the subsistence need and economically oriented. Homegardens development prospects can continue to be optimized in relations with the potentials, such as by innovating integrated farmed methods and cultivation more various species of plant for the purpose of diversifying material needed based on local resources.

Abstract

Management of conservation areas cannot be separated from the existence of communities in and around conservation areas. Bukit Duabelas National Park (BDNP) is one of the conservation areas in Indonesia whose designation has a specific purpose, namely protecting the living space and livelihood of the Orang Rimba. One of the forest resources that has been used by Orang Rimba for a long time is forest honey produced by forest honey bees (Apis dorsata) which makes its nest in Sialang Trees. Orang Rimba has its own local knowledge in managing Sialang Trees and applies strict customary rules to protect the existence of Sialang Trees. This study aims to explain the mechanism of resource management based on the local knowledge of Orang Rimba in BDNP and practices that contribute to the conservation of these resources. Data was collected in the framework of a qualitative approach using participatory observation and in-depth interviews with key informants consisting of forest honey collectors and other stakeholders, and supported by literature studies. The results show that local knowledge supports the sustainability of forest honey harvests and shows a positive impact on biodiversity conservation in the National Park. However, local knowledge about the management of Sialang Trees in Orang Rimba has begun to decline due to a lack of interest in the younger generation in harvesting Sialang honey.

Abstract

Soroh is a Balinese term for a clan in Indonesian. Each soroh is a group of Balinese Hindus who believe they are descended from one common ancestor, and has one main temple as a place of worship to the ancestors, which is called the kawitan temple. Each main soroh can be divided into several sub-soroh based on the male lineage of the main ancestor. Each sub-soroh also has a temple for their ancestors’ worship which is also called pura kawitan. Therefore, there are known subsoroh and pura kawitan main temples, whose members are a combination of sub-soroh and sub-sections. Soroh Catur Sanak Bali Mula believes he is a descendant of Mpu Kamereka which developed into four sub-soroh, namely Kayu Selem, Celagi, Kayuan, and Terunyan. The family system in Bali adheres to a patrilineal descent where all children from one family will follow the cheer of their father. For Balinese Hindus, knowing their soroh or kawitan temple is an obligation to be able to offer prayers to their kawitan temple as a form of respect for each offspring to their ancestors. Losing traces of ancestors (kawitan) is believed to be a major problem in the family life. Based on the belief that each soroh is descended from one ancestor and the family system in Bali adheres to a patrilineal lineage, soroh or kawitan tracing can be carried out by DNA analysis with Ychromosome microsatellite markers. DNA or genes on the Y chromosome that are only present in males will be passed from males to only males and so on. Therefore, the Y-chromosome microsatellite profile can be used as a search tool for Soroh or Kawitan in Balinese society.

Abstract

Natural resources in East Kalimantan are not only in the form of forests with various types of plants, but the resources also reserve various wood fossils that have lived in the past. Until now, the types of wood fossils are almost unknown. Fossil wood should be a historical asset that needs to be preserved and protected. In addition to being evidence of prehistoric times, it can also be used as material for studying plants in the past. This study was a preliminary study that aimed to identify the macroscopic attributes of wood fossils found in three villages in the Kutai Kertanegara regency, East Kalimantan. The method used was the macroscopic preparation method of fossil samples with carborundum powder. Macroscopic observations indicated that the wood fossils found in the three locations have different macrostructures, varied in color: black, brown, red, and a mixture of several colors. In the transverse section of the three samples of wood fossils, they showed the presence of pore cells (vessels) and a narrow to relatively wide rays parenchyma cell line, which indicated that the wood fossils from these three villages were broad-leaved (Hardwood). The results of the calculation of the specific gravity of the wood fossil found ranged from 2.3 to 5.5, with a hardness value between 4 and 6 on the Mohs scale.
