One of the animals that are easy to find is a bird. Based on data about the increase in the number of bird species, it can be ascertained that these animals can be found in every region in Indonesia, with diverse species and even species that are endemic to a certain area. West Papua is one of the regions in Indonesia which is rich in various species of birds, including Cendrawasih which can also be found in the Natural Forest of Malagufuk Village, Klayili District, Sorong Regency. Based on information from the surrounding community, several types of Cendrawasih are often seen in the natural forests of Malagufuk Village, but their diversity and population are not known with certainty. This study aims to determine the diversity of species and population of Cendrawasih birds in the natural forest of Malagufuk Village, Klayili District, Sorong Regency, West Papua. Thus, the results of this study are expected to be a source of data in the context of preserving and protecting the existing Cendrawasih species. Data collection on the species composition and population of Cendrawasih was carried out using the Line Transect method by making 10 observation lines with a line length of 500 m each and a distance between lines of 100 m. The results showed that there were found 3 spesies of Cendrawasih with estimated populations and densities as follows: Cendrawasih Kuning Kecil (Paradisaea minor) had an estimated population of 7.48 individuals with a density of 2.93 individuals / ha; Cendrawasih Raja (Cicinnurus regius) has an estimated population of 5 individuals with a density of 1.67 individuals / ha; and Toowa Cemerlang (Ptiloris magnificus) had an estimated population of 2.22 individuals with a density of 0.74 individuals / ha. When the research was carried out, it was seen that the three types of Cendrawasih used several types of trees as places for activities (playing or dancing), namely Matoa (Pometia coreacea), Merbau (Intsia bijuga), Damar (Agathis dammara). Beringin (Ficus benjamina), and Pala hutan (Myristica sp) with tree heights above 20 m.

Management intensification in cultivated, tropical forests drives changes in the microclimate that can threaten native forest flora and fauna. In this study, we use epiphytic bryophytes, known to be sensitive to microclimatic changes due to their lack of a protective cuticle and the exposed habitat, to investigate the predictive power of microclimate for changes in species richness and composition. Bryophytes were sampled from understory trees in natural forest and cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) trees in two types of cacao agroforests (natural shade trees and planted shade trees) in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia. The microclimate in the agroforests was characterised by low air humidity and high air temperature during the afternoon. Bryophyte species richness did not differ between habitat types but species composition changed markedly from the natural forest to the cacao agroforests. Although no correlation between species richness and microclimate values could be found, a series of matrix-based analyses revealed a significantly positive relationship between similarities in species composition and in maximum values for temperature and minimum values for humidity, which suggests that microclimatic changes are a good predictor for high turnover of bryophyte community composition from natural forests to cacao agroforests.

Study Results

 Study on centipedes was conducted in Muong Thai commune, Ta Xua Natural Reserve, Son La in May and November 2017. Samples were collected in four typical habitats: natural forests, bamboo mixed forests, bamboo forests and agro-residental areas. As a result, a total of 17 species and subspecies in two orders (Scolopendromorpha and Scutigeromorpha) was recorded in that region. Of which, the order Scolopendromorpha has 15 recorded species and subspecies belonging to 7 genera, 3 families (Cryptopidae, Scolopendridae, Scolopocryptopidae). The other order, Scutigeromorpha, has only one species in one family (Scutigeridae). The study results also contributed new records of 13 species in 7 genera to the centipede fauna of the northwestern part of Vietnam, and 1 genus, Thereuonema, to the Vietnamese fauna.Among four habitats, natural and bamboo forests have highest similarity on species composition, but agro-residental area and bamboo forest have lowest value on species composition. The diversity index (H’) is highest in bamboo forests (2,98), decreases in mixed forest (2,31), natural forest (1,67) and agro-residental area (0,74). In contrast, centipede density is highest in natural forest (0,60 ind./m2), reduces in bamboo forest (0,47 ind./m2) and mixed forest (0,20 ind./m2).

Parasitic Worms

Investment of parasitic worms of captive wildlife was an impact on their health condition. This study was conducted to determine the intensity of parasitic worm infection in wild animals kept by communities in Manokwari, West Papua. The Natif method was used, by centrifuge of 20 birds and 20 mammals (Kangaroo and Deer) faeces collected from the sites. Sampling was carried out from October to November 2016. The analysis of collected faecal samples showed that bird species were not indicated (negatively infected by worm). In mammals, Nematodes and cestodes were found. Identification of existing findings showed that 3 (three) types of worm eggs were found, namely Taenia sp in kangaroos (Macropodidae), Ascaris sp (berembrio), and stronyle sp in deer (Cervus timorensis). The highest parasites intensity was stronyle sp (10 worm eggs) and the lowest intensity was Ascaris sp (3 worm eggs) .The rate of infection and investment of parasitic worm eggs in wild animals in Manokwari was categorised relatively low.

The paper summarises main ideas concerning the structure of natural forest ecosystems at middle altitudes and documents the changes of humus forms and their chemistry in the natural forest of Žákova hora National Nature Reserve, in typical selected parts with different tree species composition: European beech – Norway spruce. The species composition, age and spatial structure are discussed and analysis of the uppermost soil layer is done in particular parts of the natural forest regeneration cycle, of different stages respectively. We compared the amount and layer composition of surface humus and basic pedochemical characteristics of holorganic and upper mineral horizons. The results document changes in the character of humus forms as a consequence of the tree species change. On the contrary, a high portion of uncertainty as for the species, age and spatial structure follows from discussion about the structure of natural forests at middle altitudes.

A study was carried out to evaluate the species composition and relative abundance of bird species of the natural and plantation forest of Ogbese Forest Rserve, Ekiti State. The study was conducted from April, 2010 to February, 2011 covering both wet and dry seasons. Sample sites were stratified based on the vegetation types and transect count techniques was employed for the evaluation. A total of 52 bird species consisting of 47 resident and 5 immigrant species was recorded. The species composition of birds during the wet and dry seasons was not significantly different. The natural forest vegetation had the highest species diversity and evenness. The relative abundance score of species during the Wet and dry seasons was variable in both habitats. The result of this study has shown that the natural and plantation vegetation types of Ogbese Forest Reserve, Ekiti State. The heterogeneity of flora species in the natural forest compared to the plantation forest might be responsible for the variation. The management of birds in the reserve should take cognisance of the vegetation types for effective conservation of bird species which are resident in the reserve.

The grasslands of Nepal's Terai are extremely rich in bird species with several globally threatened species. These birds are often quite sensitive to changes in the habitat quality and microclimate around them making them ideal indicators of the grassland ecosystem health. Unfortunately, very little is known about the grassland avifauna. This study was conducted to determine the avifaunal composition and diversity with respect to the vegetation height and patch openness in the grasslands of Shuklaphanta Wildlife Reserve by using open width line transect method along fire-lines. The birds and the vegetation were recorded using BBIRD protocol and the species diversity was calculated. The Kruskal-Walli test for differences in median populations and Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) were also conducted. This study recorded 104 species birds belonging to 39 families among which 29 species were insectivorous, 17 herbivorous, 17 carnivorous and the rest omnivorous with 94 resident species and 10 summer visitor species. Covered patches of short grassland had highest number of species while covered patches of tall grasslands had the highest species diversity. The results from KruskallWallis test and CCA highlighted the need for the maintenance of ecological integrity of all the grassland habitat areas.

The Impact

ABSTRACTBreakwater is a small structures designed to protect coastal area from extremely sea waves exposure. The breakwater has been used in many coastal area at various town in Papua include Manokwari Regency, West Papua Province. Breakwaters designed at Manokwari has been reduce the intensity of wave action in inshore waters. Moreover, the breakwater also reduce coastal erosion and provide safe harbourage for local fishing. Same with the others, the breakwater on the coast of Manokwari also contact with the substrate directly, which is a habitat for Polychaeta. The lack of research data and information on Polychaeta in the Papua Sea encourages this research must be done. The purpose of this research is to identify the spesies of Polychaeta and analyze the impact of breakwater to the community structure of Polychaeta. This research conducted on March to June 2018 focus on six station of five beach with breakwater at the coastal of Manokwari, West Papua i.e. Abasi, Pasir Putih, Wosi, Andai and Mansinam Island. The line transect quadran method were use to collect sample of the Polychaeta. Total 64 sample of Polychaeta was collecting and identified.  Approximately 17 spesies of Polychaeta (i.e. seven orders, nine of families and 14 genera) already identified. Based on ANOVA and BNt tests, the breakwater development has significantly impacte to the structure community of Polychaeta on the coastal of Manokwari. ABSTRAKBreakwater atau pemecah gelombang merupakan struktur kecil yang didesain untuk melindungi area pesisir pantai dari paparan gelombang air laut yang ekstrim. Sama dengan lainnya, breakwater di pesisir pantai Manokwari juga bersentuhan langsung dengan substrat, yang merupakan habitat cacing laut, Polychaeta. Minimnya data penelitian dan informasi tentang Polychaeta di laut Papua mendorong penelitian ini dilakukan dengan tujuan mengidentifikasi spesies Polychaeta dan menganalisa dampak yang ditimbulkan dari breakwater terhadap struktur komunitas cacing taksa cacing laut ini. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan pada bulan Maret hingga Juni 2018 yang dipusatkan pada enam stasiun di lima pantai yang terdapat breakwater, yaitu pantai Abasi, Pasir Putih, Wosi, Andai dan pantai Pulau Mansinam. Garis transek kuadran sebagai metode pengambilan sampel Polychaeta. Sebanyak 64 sampel telah dikoleksi dan berhasil dikenali 17 spesies Polychaeta yang terbagi dalam tujuh ordo, sembilan familli dan 14 genus. Berdasarkan uji ANOVA dan Uji BNt menunjukan keselarasan pembangunan breakwater berdampak signifikan terhadap struktur komunitas Polychaeta di pesisir pantai Manokwari.
