Struktur Komunitas Cacing Tanah (Kelas Oligochaeta) di Kawasan Hutan Desa Mega Timur Kecamatan Sungai Ambawang
Community structure can be reviewed from its species composition, species density, species evenness, species diversity, species dominance, and species biomass in an ecosystem. Earthworms have an important role in decomposition process of organic matters. The existence of earthworms can be considered as a bioindicator of soil productivity. A research about community structure of earthworms in Mega Timur Village forest area had been conducted in August 2016. This research aims to know the community structure of earthworms (class Oligochaeta) that are found in Mega Timur Village forest area as well as the condition of their habitat. Plot sampling was taken randomly with 5 plots whose size is 5x5m2 on every location. The sampling method used was quadrate method with size 30x30cm2, taking 5 spots on each location and hand-sorting method. Earthworms found in the site included three genera: Pheretima, Perionyx, and Pontoscolex. The highest composition of earthworms was found in Station I and III with two genera each, and the lowest composition was found in Station II with only one genus. Genus Pontoscolex had the highest density index, while genus Pheretima had the lowest index. The highest diversity index was observed in Station III (H’=0,64), while the lowest diversity index was on Station I (H’=0)

Potensi Tumbuhan Pakan Dan Lokasi Tidur Kukang Kalimantan (Nycticebus menagensis) Di Desa Tenguwe Kabupaten Landak
Bornean slow loris (Nycticebus menagensis) are endemic to Borneo. Slow loris that live outside conservation area has high potential of disturbance, because lacking of protection. One habitat outside conservation area is Tenguwe Village, Air Besar Subdistrict, Landak Regency. This study aims to obtain information on plants and plant parts used by slow loris as a food source and a sleeping site. The research was conducted in March to April 2016. The methods used were semi-structured interviews and surveys of existence. Interviews were conducted to obtain information on the existence of slow loris, plant food resources and sleeping sites. The respondents interviewed were selected using a snowball sampling technique. The results of the interviews were followed up by conducting survey in the forest. Data were analyzed descriptively. The research obtained 32 species of 17 families of plants potentially as food and 4 species of 4 families of plants potentially as for sleeping sites. The results also show that slow loris at Tenguwe village are hunted for food, pets and sold. The slow loris found were two individuals in two different locations namely Sengabu and Bejawi

Scylla spp. live in association with the mangrove forest. A damaged or loss of mangrove forest ecosystems will affect the mangrove crab population. This research aims to determine the types, morphometry and characteristics of mangrove crabs in the mangrove forest of Mutusan Estuary, Sambas Regency. The research was carried out from April to June 2015. The research obtained two species i.e., S. paramamosain and S. serrata. The species S. paramamosain has an average weight (W) of 138.13 g with an average carapace width (CW) of 95.42 mm, an average frontal margin width (FMW) of 27.97 mm and an average chela length (CL) of 57.45 mm. The species S. serrata has an average weight (W) of 212.82 g with a carapace width (CW) of 205.14 mm, an average frontal margin width (FMW) of 28.42 mm and an average length of chela (CL) of 67.11 mm. Based on the size of carapace width (CW), the Scyla spp. of young phase dominates the mangrove crab population in the mangrove forests of Mutusan Estuary, Sambas Regency
Pertumbuhan dan Karakter Anatomi Mimosa Air (Neptunia oleracea Lour.) pada Air yang Terpapar Logam Aluminium (Al)
Water mimosa (Neptunia oleracea Lour.) is one kind of aquatic plant which is potential to have adaptive ability to heavy metal exposure in water. Among heavy metals that can contaminate water is aluminum originated from the use of aluminum sulfate [Al2(SO4)3], commonly known as alum for water clarifying. The research ran for 2 months, from January to March 2017. The research used Completely Randomized Design which consisted of six aluminium sulfate concentration treatments: control, 50, 75, 100, 125, and 150 ppm. The research findings showed that aluminum had influence on N. oleracea morphologically, which was marked by the leaves becoming yellowish and the roots becoming softer. Anatomically, seen from the slide of the root, the treatment using the highest concentration resulted in a shrinkage of stele area up to 69,43%. In the slide of the plant stem, the aerenchyma was more distantly spread, and from the slide of the leaf there was a color change of the tissue to be brown. Nevertheless, N. oleracea still could survive in water with aluminum concentration of 150 ppm

White jasmine (Jasminum sambac (L) W.Ait) is a plant that has a high economic value. One of white jasmine propagation efforts is through vegetative propagation by stem cuttings. This research aims to determine the effect of liquid organic fertilizer (LOF) of bean sprouts and banana tuber on the growth of white jasmine cuttings. The research was conducted at the Laboratory of Biology and Green House of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Tanjungpura University Pontianak. The analysis of soil and bean sprouts and banana tuber LOF was conducted at the Laboratory of Chemistry and Soil Fertility, Faculty of Agriculture, Tanjungpura University Pontianak. The analysis of metals was conducted at the National Standardization Agency. The research was conducted from November 2015 to February 2016. This research used a completely randomized design with 6 treatments and three repetitions. The treatments given were comparison of bean sprout LOF: banana tuber (Control, P1 (1:0), P2 (1:1), P3 (2:1), P4 (3:1), P5 (3:2). The results showed that there was a significant of giving bean sprouts and banana tuber LOF with a ratio of 3:2 on the number of leaves and root dry weight, while giving bean sprouts and banana tuber LOF did not significantly affect the root lenght, number of roots, fresh weight, dry weight, root fresh weight and the percentage of live cuttings

Sensitive plant (Mimosa pudica) is one of weeds that may cause harm to cultivated plants, both in terms of quantity and quality of production. Climbing hempweed (Mikania micrantha) has alelokimia compounds in form of phenol, terpenoids and flavonoids that can be used as bioherbisida. This study was aimed to determine the concentration of Climbing hempweed leaf (M. micrantha) extract to inhibit the germination and growth of Sensitive Plant (M. pudica). This research was conducted in February to April 2016 in Biology Department Screenhouse, Faculty of Science and Mathematics and Wood Technology Laboratory, Faculty of Forestry, Tanjungpura University, Pontianak. The study used completely randomized design which was consisted of 5 treatments and 5 replicates, the total were 25 units of trial. The climbing weed extract used as control were 0.1; 0.3; 0.5 and 0.7 g/ ml. The results showed that the extract with a concentration of 0.5 g / ml could inhibit the germination percentage and length of sensitive plant (M. pudica). M. micrantha leaf extract at a concentration of 0.3 g / ml could inhibit the growth such as the height, root length, wet weight, and dry weight of sensitive plant
