    Similar alpha and beta diversity changes in tropical ant communities, comparing savannas and rainforests in Brazil and Indonesia

    Local biodiversity can be expected to be similar worldwide if environmental conditions are similar. Here, we hypothesize that tropical ant communities with different types of regional species pools but at similar habitat types in Brazil and Indonesia show similar diversity patterns at multiple spatial scales, when comparing (1) the relative contribution of alpha and beta diversity to gamma diversity; (2) the number of distinct communities (community differentiation); and (3) the drivers of β-diversity (species replacement or species loss/gain) at each spatial scale. In both countries, rainforests and savannas (biome scale) were represented by three landscapes (landscape scale), each with four transects (site scale) and each transect with 10 pitfall traps (local scale). At the local scale, α-diversity was higher and β-diversity lower than expected from null models. Hence, we observed a high coexistence of species across biomes. The replacement of species seemed the most important factor for β-diversity among sites and among landscapes across biomes. Species sorting, landscape-moderated species distribution and neutral drift are potential mechanisms for the high β-diversity among sites within landscapes. At the biome scale, different evolutionary histories produced great differences in ant community composition, so the replacement of species is, at this scale, the most important driver of beta diversity. According to these key findings, we conclude that distinct regional ant species pools from similar tropical habitat types are similarly constrained across several spatial scales, regardless of the continent considered

    INTERNALIZATION OF RELIGION AND CULTURE: RELIGIOSITY OF THE TEBUWUNG SOCIETY IN THE TINGKEPAN TRADITION

    No full text
    This study explains the phenomenon of the living qur'an practiced by the Tebuwung Society in Dukun, Gresik, East Java, regarding the meaning of surah Yusuf and Maryam in the tingkepantradition. The Qur'anic phenomenon in this pregnancy ritual is a form of meaning of the Qur'an's content that surrounds the local community's life. Based on qualitative research with a phenomenological approach, while data were obtained through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, this study tries to explain the phenomenon of the tingkepantradition, the public's reception of surahYusuf and Maryam, and the influence of reading the two surahsin the tingkepantradition. Based on Karl Mannheim's perspective and the social construction of Peter L. Berger, the study's results show that the awareness of the Qur'an that exists in the community is built through the religious understanding of the central figures of religion at local level. From these central figures, awareness emerged from understanding the ideas and moral messages of surahYusuf and Maryam in the hope of having descendants that handsome or beautiful face and character as depicted in the two surahs. Apart from being local wisdom, this tingkepan tradition constructively demonstrates the community's belief that the creation of man is closely related to the Oneness of God since he/she was in the womb

    Aesthetic Functions in Translation (Study in Arabic and English Proverbs)

    This article aims to give interpreters an understanding of the importance of studying the socio-cultural environment in the target language, which is certainly very different from the source language. Also, in translating proverbs into other languages whose speakers have different cultures with speakers of source languages, such as Arabic and English cultures. The data source for the main reference in this paper is the encyclopedias of Arabic proverbs by al-Maydani (1955) entitled Majma ’al-Amtsal. For finding English proverbs, the author uses Cambridge Advanced Learner Dictionary, 3rd Edition software and Martin H. Manser's The Fact on File Dictionary of Proverb. The aesthetic function theory formulated by Jan Mukarovsky was used in finding the equivalent translation of Arabic proverbs into English proverbs describing the foregrounding and automatization translations. The selection of lexicons in Arabic proverbs has lot relations with the cultures of Arab society, which emerge from various domains, such as agriculture, hunting, farm, warfare, trade, and jewelry. As for the English proverbs, of course, the lexicons used are widely found in the lives of Western people and in accordance with what was expected in their social situations. Keywords: equivalence; Arab proverb; English prover

    This study aims to determine the role of the Islamic boarding school Ibnul Amin in community development and education. This research is descriptive-qualitative research. Data was collected by participating in observations, interviews, and documentation. There are three things that are important to be described in this study, namely the role of the Ibnul Amin Islamic Boarding School in Community Development in the field of education in the form of increasing community human resources, in this case teachers, leaders, and education actors by means of khidmah tarbawiyah; services through training of educators, teacher training in Arabic, and teacher training in the field of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. Efforts in this field, although not maximized, have at least contributed to the development of society. As for the social sector, the Ibnul Amin Islamic Boarding School seeks the realization of Poskestren, Kopmastren, Development in the Economy. Empowerment of Small and Medium Enterprises for the community. In the field of Islamic da'wah, the emphasis is on religious issues and social relations between each other, through religious lectures, religious consultations, and enlivening the symbols of Islam and no less important is da'wah providing direct examples to the community in terms of doing good deeds, doing real work. in order to achieve the real purpose of life. The author considers that the Ibnul Amin Islamic Boarding School still needs to be seen from all aspects, both organizational aspects, and work programs that have been and will be carried out, so that it can be categorized that the Ibnul Amin Islamic Boarding School really carries out its functions and duties for the betterment of the Barabai community as a whole. Specifically and Indonesia in general
