Daya Nasional, Pontianak 78124 E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Peat swamp forest in Semenanjung Kampar Riau is a unique ecosystem because it has a huge plant diversity and high diversity species. The decreasing of natural forest cover on peat swamp forest Semenanjung Kampar was influenced illegal-logging activities. The purpose of this study was to identify the tree species of peat swamp forest vegetation in Semenanjung Kampar Teluk Meranti sub-district Riau. The method used in this research was survey purposive determination starting poin. The survey consisted of 5 transect that length at 2 km. The results showed that trees species found in Semenanjung Kampar was 70 trees species, that were classified into 38 famili. Dipterocarpaceae was found with the highest number of species which were Anisoptera marginata Korth, Shorea platicarpa Heim, Shorea teysmanniana Dyer ex Brandis, Shorea uliginosa Foxw, dan Vatica teysmanniana Burck. Overall, the research showed that the peat swamp forest at Semenanjung Kampar is in a good state and to be maintained.

  • Assessing the Role of Seed Dispersal in Peat Swamp Forest Regeneration
    Assessing the Role of Seed Dispersal in Peat Swamp Forest Regeneration Cassie Freund Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in Conservation Biology, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY May 2012 i ABSTRACT Both biotic and abiotic factors, especially seed dispersal, influence the process of forest regeneration, but there has been relatively little research on these factors in peat swamp forest ecosystems. Large-scale forest fires are the biggest disturbance affecting peat swamp forests, especially in the heavily degraded peatlands of Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. It is important to examine the barriers to forest regeneration in this system because peat swamp forest provides important ecosystem services for people and habitat for Indonesia’s unique biodiversity. Several studies have suggested that seed dispersal limitation will be one of the most significant barriers to peat swamp forest regeneration. This study examined the composition of regenerating seedlings and saplings in the former Mega-Rice project area to determine if there was evidence for seed dispersal limitation in general, and how species with different seed dispersal mechanisms (wind, bird or bat, and primate) were distributed across the landscape. The results indicate that (1) there are more primary forest species present in the regenerating flora than expected and (2) seedling and sapling abundance is highest near the forest edge, declining significantly as distance from the edge increases. As predicted, primate-dispersed species were the most dispersal limited, and wind dispersed species were found at the furthest distances from the forest edge. However, of the species with known dispersal mechanisms, bird and bat dispersed species were the most common, suggesting that these animals play a significant role in peat swamp forest regeneration.

  • Diversity of the Tree Flora in Semenggoh Arboretum, Sarawak, Borneo
    Gardens’ Bulletin Singapore 64(1): 139–169. 2012 139 Diversity of the tree flora in Semenggoh Arboretum, Sarawak, Borneo C.Y. Ling1 and S. Julia2 Botanical Research Centre, Sarawak Forestry Corporation, Km 20, Jalan Puncak Borneo, 93250 Kuching, Sarawak [email protected] (corresponding author) [email protected] ABSTRACT. A 4-ha sample plot was established at the Arboretum, Semenggoh Forest Reserve to document tree species in this lowland mixed dipterocarp forest. The area assessed contains 2837 trees with diameter at breast height ≥ 10 cm belonging to 60 families, 160 genera and 541 species. Euphorbiaceae and Malvaceae (10 genera each) were the most diverse families at genus level and Dipterocarpaceae (61 species) is most diverse at species level. More than 25% of trees (720 individuals) were dipterocarps and contributed the highest basal area (cross-sectional area over-bark at breast height measured in m2) of 16.7 m2/ha. The most abundant species are Shorea multiflora (21 trees/ha) and Pouteria malaccensis (31 trees/ha) for dipterocarp and non-dipterocarp species, respectively. Semenggoh Arboretum has a rich and diverse flora and, being a natural primary forest in the middle of an increasingly developed area, Semenggoh is important as a genetic reservoir for threatened species (particularly the dipterocarps) and as an in-situ conservation site for Sarawak’s lowland mixed dipterocarp forest. Keywords. Borneo, Dipterocarpaceae, Sarawak, Semenggoh Arboretum, tree diversity Introduction Floristic composition studies or floristic analyses are a useful tool to understand the spatial pattern of plant composition and diversity. When combined with ecological, environmental, geological and historical variables, important information on mechanisms maintaining high levels of tree species diversity in tropical forest can be obtained (Slik et al.

Molecular phylogeny of trees species in Tripa Peat Swamp Forest, Aceh, Indonesia inferred by 5.8S nuclear gen. Biodiversitas 19: 1186-1193. Tripa peat swamp forest is protected areas that have high biodiversity. Nevertheless, in some areas, the damage occurred due to conversions of land function to oil palm plantations. The impact of conversions of peat swamp forest to oil palm plantations has led to biodiversity decreased. Hence, it is important to identify the remain tree species in Tripa peat swamp forest. This study aimed to determine of trees species diversity in Tripa peat swamp forest by using of 5.8S rRNA nuclear gene. Research was conducted at Forest Genetics and Molecular Forestry Laboratory, Faculty of Forestry, IPB from September 2015 to August 2016. Molecular identification consisted of DNA extraction, PCR analysis, and sequencing. The data were analyzed using Bioedit, MEGA 6, BLAST, and ITS2 database.

  • The Taxonomy and Conservation of Palaquium in Brunei
    The taxonomy and conservation of Palaquium in Brunei F. Culverhouse 2013 Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment for the MSc in the Biodiversity and Taxonomy of Plants ii Abstract The genus Palaquium Blanco. represents over half the Sapotaceae species found in Brunei and is an important component of Brunei’s forests, growing in six of the seven major forest types. This thesis provides an updated checklist of Palaquium from Brunei and includes a new species record for Brunei. For the first time all but one Palaquium species found in Brunei now have herbarium specimens collected from Brunei cited. A taxonomic account for the 20 species of Palaquium found in Brunei is provided and includes a genus description, full species descriptions, distribution maps and a key to the species. All herbarium specimens collected from Brunei in the BRUN, E and K herbaria have been added to the PADME Sapotaceae data base and, where possible, these have been georeferenced and images of specimens added. Using the distribution data gathered and literature based information of forest threats in Brunei conservation assessments for all species have been produced using IUCN criteria and categories. Problems associated with the lack of material for some species and limited distribution data is discussed as is the importance of taxonomic expertise and clean distribution data for accurate and full species descriptions and conservation assessments. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisor Peter Wilkie, for your guidance, patience, and your infectious enthusiasm for the subject. I am grateful to Dr Rahayu Sukri and Mr Joffre Haji Ali Ahmad for allowing me to visit the Brunei National Herbarium to see the Sapotaceae collection.
