Judul: Pengaruh Karakteristik Habitat Ruang Terbuka Hijau terhadap Keanekaragaman Kupu-Kupu (Studi Kasus di Kebun Raya Bogor)
Abstrak: Bogor Botanical Garden (BBG) which functions as an ex-situ conservation places is one of the green open space (GOS) in Bogor and also home to many kinds of animals including butterflies. Butterfly serve as bioindicator of the ecological function of green open space. The purpose of this research was to determine diversity, eveness, and the similarity habitat use by butterflies on five habitat types in Bogor Botanical Garden in order to clarify the relationship between of biotic and abiotic factors in green open spaces and butterfly assemblages. This research was conducted from November to December 2011. Data collected were butterfly species and population, habitat characteristic, and vegetation analysis. Butterfly diversity was investigated by using line transect count method in five types of habitats which were surveyed in the morning (08:00-12:00) with three repetitions in the daytime under fine weather conditions. The following five transects were selected in this study: (1) Fruit plants habitat, (2) Mediterranean plants habitat, (3) Woody plants habitat, (4) Aquatic plants habitat, and (5) Garuda Garden. The diversity was calculated by using species diversity index (H’), eveness index (E) and similarity index (Sj). The relationships between biotic and abiotic factors to butterfly population were also determined. Based on survey in five sites, a total of 60 species belonging of five families : Papilionidae (7 species), Nymphalidae (33 species) Pieridae (13 species), Lycaenidae (6 species), and Hesperiidae (1 species) were captured and identified. Butterfly’s habitat preferences are: 1) The optimum temperature for a butterfly is between 28 0C-34 0C, 2) Buterflies originally found in relatively open habitats (large value of the GSF and small value of LAI), 3) Butterfly need a variety of larval host plant, nectar resources, and shelter, and 4) Have a water source, especially stagnant water source. This study shows that the provision of adequate nectar resources and larval host plant are likely to be essential to the successful conservation of butterfly species.

Judul: Dinamika Keanekaragaman Jenis dan Karakteristik Habitat Kupu-kupu di Kawasan Kampus IPB Darmaga
Abstrak: The diversity of wildlife including butterfly is one of the factors that becomes a consideration on the declaration of Bogor Agricultural Institute (IPB) as Campus Biodiversity. The development of land use at IPB Darmaga requires a research on the relationship between habitat characteristics with the diversity of butterfly as a comparison with the previous study to provide habitat management data for the management of IPB Darmaga campus. The study was conducted at eight habitat types in IPB Darmaga, which are: 1) Arboretum of Landscape, 2) Al Hurriyah Forest, 3) Sengon Forest, 4) Akasia Forest, 5) DAR Area, Faculty of Forestry, 6) Residential of Lecturers (Perumahan dosen), 7) Cikabayan and 8) Gymnasium Area. The result of this research gets 707 butterfly consisting 55 species of butterfly. Butterflies which were found consists of five families, namely Papilionidae (8 species), Nymphalidae (29 species), Pieridae (8 species), Lycaenidae (4 species) and Hesperidae (6 species). Residential of Lecturers (Perumahan dosen) habitat has the highest species diversity value of 2.93 with an average temperature characteristics of 30.330C, relative humidity average of 75.89%, the value of Leaf Area Index (LAI) of 1.507 and has a diversity of larvae feed plants, butterflies feed plants and shelters. Generally, species diversity index values and the number of butterfly species has decreased compared to previous studies due to changes in land use on IPB Darmaga campus that disturbs the habitat of butterfly.

Judul: Metoda intramedullary pin sebagai salah satu cara menanggulangi fraktur femoralis pada anjing
Abstrak: Metoda intramedullary pin merupakan salah satu metoda penanggulangan fraktur yang populer karena banyak mempunyai keuntungan, diantaranya adalah : cepat dan mudah dikerja- kan, fiksasi yang dihasilkan lebih kuat dibandingkan metoda plate, setelah sembuh tulang menjadi lebih kuat, dan biaya yang digunakan relatif lebih ekonomis. Beberapa macam intramedullary pin yang ada, diantara- Steinmann pin, Rush pin, Kirschner pin, Kuentscher nya : nail, dan Leighton Shuttle pin. Teknik pemasangan intramedullary pin dapat melalui operasi tertutup atau operasi terbuka, tergantung dari ti- pe dan derajat fraktur. Pada operasi tertutup tidak dila- kukan pembukaan terhadap lokasi fraktur. Penyisipan pin dilakukan melalui fragmen fraktur proximal diteruskan ke fragmen distal, sehingga pada metoda ini luka yang timbul hanya pada tempat dimana pin tersebut dimasukkan. Pada operasi terbuka penyisipan pin dilakukan melalui pembukaan lokasi fraktur. Dalam melakukan pembukaan terhadap lokasi fraktur, harus dipilih pendekatan yang paling sesuai dan paling sedikit kemungkinannya untuk menimbulkan komplikasi. Pengambilan pin biasanya dilakukan setelah empat atau lima minggu disisipkan, diharapkan pada waktu itu telah terjadi pembentukan callus yang sudah cukup kuat untuk me- nunjang berdirinya tubuh. Pada beberapa keadaan pin tidak perlu diambil, misalnya pada anjing tua atau pada anjing yang menderita penyakit tulang. Tidak ada reaksi sakit... akibat pin bertahan di dalam tulang.
