Judul: Piranti lunak Sistem Informasi Hutan Kota Plant And Tree Information System (PLATIS)
Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membuat sistem informasi mengenai tumbuhan. Dengan adanya sistem informasi dalam bentuk digital ini, diharapkan dapat memberikan kemudahan bagi siapa saja yang membutuhkan informasi untuk mengakses dan mencari informasi mengenai tumbuhan, terutama untuk pembangunan hutan kota. Informasi yang dibutuhkan tersebut adalah informasi mengenai nama ilmiah, nama daerah, tipe hujan, cahaya, altitud minimum, altitud maksimum, jenis tanah, tekstur tanah, solum, pH, daya transpirasi, daya serap CO2, ketahanan garam, ketahanan genang, bentuk tajuk, diameter tajuk, model arsitektur, tinggi tumbuhan, kelas tinggi, kelas tajuk, serta tiga foto tumbuhan. Penelitian ini menghasilkan sebuah piranti lunak sistem informasi yang dinamakan PLATIS (Plant and Tree Information System). PLATIS terdiri atas tiga menu form, yaitu form tumbuhan, form famili, dan form tutorial. Piranti lunak ini dibuat dengan menggunakan MS Visual Studios 2005 dengan basis data yang dibuat dengan MS Access XP, serta sebuah program .NetFx sebagai komponen untuk menjalankan aplikasi ini.

Abstrak: The development of urban forest must consider the purpose for the successful development of urban forestry, one of which is those plant selected suitable with the ecological conditions where the urban forest will be estabilished. The characters of the plants that will be planted must also suit the purpose of the development of urban forest. The objective of this study was to create an information system of plants. Such information system will be developed in digital form, and would provide ease of access of the information on the selected plants. Information of plants that were be collected include scientific name, local name, rainfall, light inensity, altitude, soil type, soil texture, sollup, pH, Transpiration, CO2 absorption, salt endurance, pool endurance, canopy shape, canopy class, and the picture of plant. This study produce a system information software that named PLATIS (Plant and Tree Information System). PLATIS consist of three form, plant form, family form, and tutorial form. This software made using MS Visual Studios 2005 with database that made using MS Access XP, and using >NetFx (dotNetFramework) as a component to run this software.

Judul: Biology and ecology of the buffalo fly, haematobia exigua de meijere (diptera:muscidae)
Abstrak: The life history of the buffalo fly was observed at room temperature of 27°-29.5°C and at a relative humidity of 48-68 percent. The eggs hatched after 17-22 hours, with an average of 18 hours. First instar larvae measured 1.25 + 0.16 mm long and 0.27 + 0.037 mm wide. reach the second larval stage. It took 6-12 hours to the second instar larvae measured 2.676 +0.187 mm long and 0.353 +0.028 mm wide. The second instar took about 12-24 hours to reach the third larval stage. The third instar measured 6.833 + 0.189 mm long and 0.919 + 0.051 mm wide. It took about 2-3 days for the third instar to become pupae. Duration of the pupal stage was about 5-7 days before the adults emerged. Under laboratory condition, the buffalo fly completed its life cycle in 9.5 to 10.5 days, whereas under field condition it took 9-14 days with an average of 10.5 days. The growth ratio which was based on the measurements of the cephalo-pharyngeal skeleton of each instar was 1.797. The preoviposition period was 8-12 days and mating usually occurred on the 6th or 7th day. The longevity of the male was 29 days, whereas it was 32 days in the female. The range of egg production under laboratory condition was between 20-139 per female fly. The belly and hind legs of the carabao were the most preferred habitat either during cloudy and cool dry or shiny and warm day. When the weather was clear and the carabao was in the shade, the flies tended to be more distributed particularly on the shoulder, dewlap, back and horns. The carabaos had relatively fewer Musca sp. and Stomoxys calcitrans than cattle; never the less carabaos had a higher infestation of buffalo fly than cattle. Oviposition occured either during the day or night but the buffalo flies were more active during the night than in the day time. The effect of various lengths of exposure time of manure in relation to the oviposition was profound. observed, the maximum number of the buffalo flies was occurred when the dung was exposed for 30 minutes. With increasing time of exposure the number and variety of insects also increase. It was evident that Sepsidae and psychodidae were the most dominant insects emerging from the dung. The number of buffalo flies also increased with increasing
