Judul: Manajemen Pemeliharaan dan Persilangan Kupu-Kupu Ornithoptera priamus dengan Ornithoptera croesus di Penangkaran (Studi Kasus di PT Kupu-Kupu Taman Lestari Tabanan, Bali)
Abstrak: The butterfly is the one of a beautiful insect in the world that serve as the symbol of beauty. The potensial which butterlies have used as an object of scientific research, souvenirs, collectibles, and developed into a tourist attraction that has high appeal and bring in foreign exchange. One of the efforts to enhance productivity by producing generation with a unique color pattern that interesting then performed hybridization to butterflies. In Indonesia hybridization of butterflies were new and rarely performed by breeders of butterflies. Kupu-kupu Taman Lestari Ltd. is on of the companies that have done hybridization. The principle of hybridization is to produce derivatives (hybrid) with the appearance or character better than parental. In hybridization of butterfly, the expected character is a hybrid morphological appearance better than parental, both quantitative and qualitative views. This study is aimed to asses the maintenance management of butterfly hybridization, it examine and hybridization success rate of butterflies in the Kupu-Kupu Taman Lestari Ltd. Tabanan, Bali, and to analyze morphological differences in the hybrid with parental. This research was conducted at the Kupu-Kupu Taman Lestari Ltd. Tabanan, Bali in April-July 2012. Butterflies are hybridization in the research are the species O.priamus male and O.croesus female, aech amounted to two individuals. In a research conducted test analysis T-Student of the size of the butterly’s body. Based on the research, maintenance management butterfly hybridization using a semi-intensive system consists of maintenance of egg, larva, pupa, and health care. There are three stages in the preparation phase hybridization is the intersection, crossing implementation, and monitoring cross. The succes rate of the average crossing at 43.01% and can be classified in the category of moderate (30-49%). Appearance the general morphology, a hybrid males have a style that is similar to O.priamus male and color similar to O.croesus male. At the same time the hybrid females have style similar to O.priamus female and color similar to O.croesus female. Based on the T-Student test calculation it can be concluded that the morphology of a butterfly berween elders with a hybrid was significanly different.

Judul: Pemeliharaan dan Pengembangbiakan Kupu-Kupu Papilio memnon Sebagai Upaya Persiapan Taman Kupu-Kupu di Plaza Institut Pertanian Bogor
Abstrak: Two domes at Bogor Agricultural University (BAU) plaza are so potential to create a butterfly garden that ecoeduturisme in campus can be complete. Therefore, a study is needed to before creating the butterfly garden and in managing it. This research is aimed to rear and culture P. memnon butterfly in order to prepare and manage the butterfly garden at plaza BAU. The parameters observed in this research included life cycle, life expectancy, sex ratio, synchronization of imago emergence, and abiotic factors. Rearing activity was a combination method in laboratory and dome Plaza BAU. Life cycle of F1 ranged between 30 and 80 days while F2 ranged between 40 and 101 days. Survivorship curve indicated that the mortality started to increase at the fifth instar larvae. Differences in imago emergence periode have caused difficulties for the butterfly pairs to do mating and they were finally died. Plants for feed and nectar sources must be provided to sustain butterfly garden. Internal and external barriers must be intensively controlled so ecoeduturisme function of butterfly garden can be realized.

Judul: Metrik Einstein (Anti-) Self-Dual Berdimensi Empat dengan Metode Cartan
Abstrak: Gravitational field equation can be formulated in differential forms (differential geometry), which describes gravity as a manifestation of the curvature of space-time. Curvature of space-time is characterized by a metric that satisfies the gravitational field equation. With differential forms it can be formulated the (anti-) self-dual Einstein equation, which is a modification of the Cartan structure in (anti-) self-dual basis. Calculation of (anti-) self-dual metric with (anti-) self-dual Einstein equation is simpler than the calculation using Christoffel symbols.
