Judul: Komunitas Lumut Epifit Perkebunan Kopi di Tanjung Rusia, Lampung
Abstrak: Keberadaan lumut di hutan tidak luput dari ancaman kepunahan akibat dari fragmentasi hutan. Jenis lumut epifit semakin menurun akibat fragmentasi hutan karena habitat alaminya dimusnahkan. Hutan primer di Lampung semakin berkurang disebabkan adanya fragmentasi hutan untuk dijadikan lahan perkebunan. Penelitian ini bertujuan menjelaskan komunitas lumut epifit di perkebunan kopi yang diamati; ditunjukkan dengan kekayaan jenis, kelimpahan jenis, komposisi jenis, dan keragaman jenis. Pengambilan sampel lumut dilakukan di tiga blok perkebunan kopi di Desa Tanjung Rusia, Kabupaten Pringsewu, Lampung. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan dengan pembuatan lima plot 50 m x 50 m untuk menginventarisasi keragaman lumut perkebunan tersebut. Keragaman komunitas lumut epifit perkebunan kopi di Tanjung Rusia, Lampung termasuk dalam kategori rendah (H’ < 2). Lumut epifit yang diperoleh di perkebunan kopi sebanyak 18 jenis yang termasuk ke dalam 12 jenis lumut hati dan enam jenis lumut sejati. Rata-rata sebanyak dua jenis lumut dijumpai pada setiap tanaman kopi. Jenis lumut yang paling melimpah keberadaannya di kebun kopi adalah Frullania ericoides. Komposisi jenis lumut antara plot yang satu dengan plot yang lain relatif tidak berbeda.

Abstrak: Diversity of epiphytic bryophyte was declined due to the fragmentation of forests. This study was aimed to describe the community of epiphytic bryophyte in coffee plantations; indicated with species richness, species abundance, species composition, and species diversity. Bryophyte sampling was carried out in three blocks of coffee plantations in the village of Tanjung Rusia, Pringsewu, Lampung. Five plots of 50 m x 50 m were established for collecting bryophytes in the plantation. Diversity of bryophyte communty on coffee plantations in Tanjung Rusia, Lampung was included in low category (H’ < 2). Eighteen species of epiphytic bryophytes was obtained in the coffee plantation, consist of 12 species of liverworts and six species of mosses. Species bryophyte found in the coffee trees were two species in average. The most abundant species existed on the plantation was Frullania ericoides. Bryophyte species composition were not significantly different among the plots.

Abstrak: The aim of this study was to learn the role of diagnostic imaging to define the diagnose of the upper gastrointestinal tract disorder of the Schnauzer. The information from the owner (anamneses) stated that the dog has been vomiting for a year, sometimes containing blood. There might also be a possibility that it had eaten a corpus alineum. This study case covered physical examination, hematology and blood chemical analysis, radiography, ultrasonography, and endoscopy performed. Physical examination showed weight loss and anorexia. Hematology and blood chemical analysis showed an increase in lymphocyte, haemoglobin (Hb), haemotocrit (Hct), ureum, creatinine, alanin aminotransferase (ALT), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP). Abdominal radiograph showed no abnormality in the abdominal organs. Abdominal ultrasonography showed a hyperechoic mass on the stomach mucosal surface. The mass forms an acoustic shadowing at the ventral. The acoustic shadowing in the stomach may be caused by an accumulation of gas or foreign object such as bone. Endoscopy showed that there was inconsistency of stomach mucosa surface, foamy bile fluid in the stomach, ulcers, and erosion of the stomach mucosal surface. Based on the endoscopy performed, the animal was clearly diagnosed with chronic gastritis accompanied by stomach ulcer and erosion.
