Judul: Identitas Durian Tengkurak dari Kalimantan Barat.
Abstrak: Suatu eksplorasi terhadap durian endemik (Durio testudinarum Becc.) yang sudah langka statusnya dilakukan di Kalimantan Barat pada bulan April 2013 hingga Agustus 2014. Kegiatan ini menemukan durian baru yang mirip dengan D. testudinarum, masyarakat lokal menyebutnya durian tengkurak. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah mengkaji identitas, persebaran dan keanekaragaman durian tengkurak di Kalimantan Barat. Eksplorasi dilakukan di 10 Kabupaten yaitu Mempawah, Landak, Bengkayang, Sanggau, Sekadau, Sintang, Kapuas Hulu, Melawi, Kayong Utara, dan Ketapang, di Kalimantan Barat. Pengamatan morfologi dan anatomi dilakukan di Laboratorium Sistematika Tumbuhan IPB Bogor dan pengamatan spesimen pembanding di Herbarium Bogoriense LIPI Cibinong. Pengambilan sampel tumbuhan durian tengkurak di lapangan menggunakan metode eksplorasi. Semua individu yang berasal dari satu lokasi dianggap sebagai satu populasi. Setiap individu tumbuhan dikoleksi bagian ranting, daun, bunga, dan buah. Sampel dibuat spesimen herbarium sebanyak dua duplikat. Pengamatan morfologi meliputi 32 karakter mengikuti deskriptor durian. Pengamatan anatomi daun dilakukan terhadap tipe, bentuk dan susunan trikoma daun dari permukaan bawah dengan membuat irisan paradermal dengan metode sediaan utuh dan irisan melintang dengan metode parafin. Persamaan fenetik dianalisis dengan koefisien Simple Maching (SM) dan metode UPGMA. Kegiatan ini menemukan jenis durian yang oleh masyarakat lokal disebut durian tengkurak di dua Kabupaten yaitu Sekadau dan Kapuas Hulu. Di Kabupaten Sekadau ditemukan di empat lokasi yaitu Hutan Rawak, Bukit Rejunak, Hutan Tembaga, dan Bukit Merindang, sedangkan di Kabupaten Kapuas Hulu ditemukan di satu lokasi yaitu Bukit Sagu. Total semua individu pohon yang ditemukan dan diamati adalah 35 individu. Durian tengkurak bervariasi pada karakter morfologi daun, bunga, dan buah. Tujuh variasi karakter baru ditemukan yaitu variasi pertulangan daun lateral bagian bawah, jumlah kelopak dan mahkota bunga, kedudukan putik terhadap benang sari, munculnya bunga dan buah di dahan pohon, variasi area tanpa duri pada ujung buah dan warna kulit buah. Di permukaan bawah daun durian tengkurak ditemukan lima tipe trikoma dengan susunan saling berhimpitan. Susunan trikoma mulai dari lapisan terluar hingga terdalam secara berurutan adalah complex peltate scale, simple peltate scale, four-armed stellate, flat stellate hair, dan one celled stalk with a hemispherical glandular head. Berdasarkan analisis gugus, durian tengkurak dari Kalimantan Barat terpisah dari kelompok durian yang berbuah di batang dengan koefisien keserupaan sebesar 50%. Durian tengkurak berbeda dengan jenis lainnya pada beberapa karakter yaitu posisi perbungaan di pangkal batang dekat permukaan tanah hingga di cabang pohon, bentuk ujung kuncup bunga bundar, warna daun kelopak hijau hingga hijau kekuningan, warna daun mahkota putih, warna kulit buah coklat hingga hijau kekuningan, bentuk duri buah mengerucut dan piramid, warna aril buah putih susu, dan buah ini tidak dikonsumsi. Durian tengkurak pada koefisien keserupaan sebesar 65% membentuk tiga kelompok yang dipisahkan berdasarkan lima karakter yaitu bentuk daun mahkota, ujung mahkota, area tanpa duri pada ujung buah, warna kulit buah dan bentuk duri. Durian tengkurak dari Kalimantan Barat memiliki kemiripan dengan D. testudinarum, tetapi memiliki buah yang lebih kecil (diameter 5-8 cm), kulit buah coklat, aril putih susu dan sangat tipis (<1 mm) dan buah ini tidak dikonsumsi. Kami menyimpulkan bahwa durian tengkurak adalah jenis baru dan varietas baru dengan nama Durio tanjungpurensis Navia, sp. nov. dan Durio tanjungpurensis var. tembaganensis Navia, var. nov.
