IDENTIFIKASI KEANEKARAGAMAN JENIS BURUNG DI KAWASAN RESTORASI RESORT SEI BETUNG, TAMAN NASIONAL GUNUNG LEUSER
ABSTRACT: Forest damage in any
ways will determine all of the organism inside include the birds. Forest
restoration is a positive step that would help to recover back the forest. Bird
is one of bio-indicator of forest condition. This research was needed not only
to compare the diversity of birds
between restoration area and primary forest (middle and edge forest), but also
to know the species of birds which could adapt in both areas. The research was
conducted in June – July 2012 at Sei Betung Resort, based on the IPA (Indices
Ponctuels d’Abondence) or Point Count method.
The result showed that bird diversity index in middle forest is 3,586 as
well as in edge forest is 3,554. Both results are categorized as high diversity
level, while the restoration area is categorized as middle diversity level with
3,095 index value. Some birds were founded in both areas such as Wreathed
hornbill (Aceros undulatus), Emerald dove (Chalcophaps indica), Black magpie
(Platysmurus leucopterus), Short-toed coucal (Centropus rectunguis ), Greater
coucal (Centropus sinensis), Lesser coucal (Centropus bengalensis), Buff-rumped
Woodpecker (Meiglyptes tristis), Rufous woodpecker (Celeus brachyurus),
Red-breasted parakeet (Psittacula alexandri), Yellow-vented bulbul (Phycnonotus
goiavier), Cream-vented bulbul (Pycnonotus simplex), Black-headed Bulbul
(Pycnonotus atriceps), Red-whiskered bulbul (Pycnonotus jocosus), Ashy
tailorbird (Orthotomus ruficeps), Rufous-tailed tailorbird (Orthotomus
sericeus), Magpie robin (Copsychus saularis).
