Judul: Vegetation Analysis And Utilization By Ethnic Wondama Which Is living In The Wondiboy Mountains Natural Reserve , Land Papua
Abstrak: Pegunungan Wondiboy - CAPW) still keep their custom and traditional wisdom (ecological wisdom) to use all natural resources around them, including plants. The objective of this research is to know about the plant diversity at species level in the forest community of the Wondiboy Mountains Natural Reserve and the level of plant utilization by the locals in that area. A descriptive method was used in this research by combining interview and field survey techniques. The standard procedure of vegetation analysis and the useful value analysis were applied to analyse the data. Results of the research show that the highest index (Importance Value) of trees at 0-500 m asl. in Eastern side dominated by Pometia pinnata (17.3%) and Myristica lepidota Bl. (17.3%) in Western side. Poles dominated by Dalbergia sp.1 (37.1) in Eastern side and Spondias cytherea Sonnerat (35.2%) in Western. Saplings dominated by Carallia brachiata (Lour.) Merr. (15.8%) in Eastern side and Semecarpus aruensis Engl. (15.9%) in Western. Seedlings dominated by Phanera lingua (DC.) Miq. (22.3%) in Eastern side and Clerodenrum sp.1 (19.3%) in Western side. While, trees at 500- 1000 m asl. dominated by Agathis sp. (29.3%) in Eastern side and Intsia bijuga (19.5%) in Western side. Poles also dominated by Pometia sp. (43.3%) in Eastern side and Haplolobus moluccanus (Leenh.) H. J. Lam (31.2%) in Western. Samplings dominated by Gnetum gnemon (23%) in Eastern side and Gnetum gnemon (15.2%) in Western. Seedlings dominated by Nephrolepis falcate (Cav.) C. Chr. (28.6%) in Eastern side and Zysygium sp.7 (14.4) in Western. Furthermore, the average of species richness (R’) of trees is 3.996; poles 2.076, saplings 2.281; and seedlings 1.327. The average of species abundance (H’) of trees is 2.361; poles 1.513; saplings 2.017; and seedlings 1.533. And also the average of the species evenness (E) of trees is 0.989; poles 0.962; samplings 0.946; and seedlings 0.959. Furthermore, from the vegetation structure had been reported from that area, trees is vegetation with the highest number in utilization by the locals (1622), and subsequently followed by poles (923.5), saplings (1134), seedlings (241), and liana (84. 12). And the fuel wood (firewood) is the main plant utilization of locals in this area. In addition, the several species were found in plots of vegetation profile; however we separated between vertical and horizontal projection. In vertical view, Pometia pinnata (27 m) is species dominant in plot I, Ficus benjamina Bl. (34 m) in plot II, and Planchonia papuana Knuth. (31 m) in plot III, and Erioglossum rubiginosum (Roxb.) Bl. (29 m) in plot IV. While in horizontal, Dalbergia sp.1 12.2% (from total 99%) in plot I, Pometia pinnata 15.5% (from total 97.8%) in plot II, Aistopetalum viticoides Schltr. 13.5% (from total 98.4%) in plot III, and Teijsmanniodendron sp 16.3% (from total 96.7%) in plot IV.

Judul: Diversity of food and medicinal plants in Madapangga Tourism Park Bima District of West Nusa Tenggara Province
Abstrak: Madapangga Tourism Nature Park is one of the conservation area in Bima District that has a high plants resources. This study aims to identify the species diversity of food and medicine plants, utilization by people around the area and its development. Vegetation analysis was conducted to determine species diversity, species dominance, distribution patterns and community similarity. Interviews were conducted to determine the common species used and the level knowledge of people about the use of food and medicinal plants. Food plants are found 36 species from 20 families and 4 habitus consisting of 25 species of trees, 1 species of shrubs, 9 species of herbs and 1 species of liana. Anacardiaceae and Leguminosae were found with the highest number of species respectively 4 species, whereas Amaranthaceae, Myrtaceae and Rutaceae respectively 3 species. That food plants used as fruits (17 species), vegetables (15 species), fresh vegetables and spices (respectively 5 species), the source of carbohydrate (3 species). Part of the plants are used as food mostly fruits (25 species), leaves (18 species), seeds (4 species), flowers (3 species), bulbs and stems (respectively 2 species) and all parts of the plant (1 species). Medicinal plants are found 76 species from 40 families and 6 habitus consisting of 38 species of trees, 10 species of shrubs, 23 species of herbs, 3 species of lianas, respectively 1 species from epiphyte and parasite. Leguminosae were found with the highest number of species are 7 species; Euphorbiaceae are 6 species; Amaranthaceae, Anacardiaceae and Rutaceae respectively 4 species; Asteraceae, Moraceae, and Myrtaceae respectively 3 species. That medicinal plants are used to treat a variety of illness. Utilization of these species are categorized into 15 groups of diseases / usage. Part of the plants used are the leaves (48 species), bark (24 species), roots (19 species), fruits (17 species), flowers (8 species), beans (21 species), roots, bark fruit and tubers (respectively 2 species) and all parts (11 species). The highest richness and diversity of food and medicinal plants found in intensive utilization block. Margalef richness index food and medicinal plants in that block respectively 10.29 and 6.09, whereas Shannon-Wiener diversity index respectively 3.66 and 3.12. The lowest Margalef richness index of food and medicinal plants found in protection block respectively 4.97 and 2.77, whereas Shannon-Wiener diversity index respectively 2.66 and 2. Evenness value in the third block in the management tend to be higher with value each more than 0.7. Tree habitus of food plants dominated by Tamarindus indica, Ziziphus mauritiana, Shcleicera oleosa, Protium javanicum, Psidium guajava, Syzygium cumini, and Aleurites moluccana; whereas medicinal plants consist of Alstonia scholaris, Strychnos ligustrina, Alstonia spectabilis, Lagerstroemia speciosa and Jatropha curcas. Shrub and herb habitus dominated by Solanum indicum, Amaranthus spinosus, Portulaca oleracea, Ocimum sanctum and Lantana camara; whereas medicinal plants are dominated by Zingiber aromaticum, Achyranthes aspera, Justicia gendarussa, S.indicum and Amorphophallus variabilis. Liana habitus belonging food plants are found in the study site is Momordica charantia, whereas those belonging medicinal plants are Tinospora crispa and Piper retrofractum.
