Abstract
Identifying rat and mouse species quickly, affordably, and accurately is crucial for effective populationmanagement, as well as for eradication or conservation purposes. However, the sheer diversity of these species poses achallenge. To address this, a molecular approach has been developed, involving the amplification of a short genetic markerfrom materials commonly left by the animal, such as hairs and feces. Recent available PCR primers were not suitable
Abstract
The European Union (EU) established cooperation with timber exporting countries to fight illegal logging through the Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade (FLEGT) Action Plan. FLEGT has gained increasing interest from several countries, including Vietnam, which has signed a bilateral Voluntary Partnership Agreement (VPA) with the EU. Central to the VPA is the implementation of a timber legality assurance system (TLAS) that ensures that only legal products
Abstract
Population growth requires the use of more land, which increases land fragmentation. This study aims to understand the impacts and adaptation strategies of farmers facing privately owned forest land fragmentation (POF-LF). The research was conducted in Ciamis Regency, West Java, Indonesia. Data were collected through structured questionnaires for a simple random sample of 170 respondents, as well as in-depth interviews. The data obtained were processed by calculating
Abstract
Castanopsis argentea is an endangered tree naturally distributed in Java and Sumatera Island and considered a keystone species in the submontane forest ecosystem. A laboratory study was conducted to test the cross-amplification potential of seven pairs of Castanopsis cuspidata var. sieboldii microsatellite markers to be used for Castanopsis argentea. The rate of cross-amplification success, average number of alleles per locus (NA), observed heterozygosity (HO),

Abstract
Social forestry schemes aimed at both conservation and land redistribution for smallholders surrounding the Indonesian state forests. However, the results so far are mixed at best, with limited areas having been granted to the intended beneficiary groups. Several problems appear to be the causes. They range from the domination of administrative and managerial aspects of the scheme, lack of decision-making participation of the intended beneficiaries, to the
Abstract
Hipposideros spp. are insectivorous bats and karst cave dwellers. This study aimed to study the roosting ecology, reproduction, and population fluctuations of three species H. diadema, H. larvatus, and H. ater in Gunung Sewu Karst region, Indonesia. Age and reproductive status of individuals were identified and analyzed using a combination of forearm length (FA) and body mass grades (W). Multiple regression analysis was used to determine the correlation
Abstract
The invertebrate indices for assessing water quality have not been widely developed in tropical regions where invertebrate diversity is generally high and severe water quality degradation is ongoing. We compared the applicability of six existing invertebrate indices using the dataset from 23 Indonesian streams and developed a new index by modifying an existing one using Threshold Indicator Taxa Analysis (TITAN). Analyses using general linear models (GLMs) revealed
Abstract
Privately owned forests (POF) play an important role in Indonesia’s social, economic, and environmental spheres. The success of optimizing their roles relies on the traditional management practices carried out by farmers. Therefore, this study aimed to explore POF traditional management by farmers, POF performance, and their influencing factors. Respondents included 170 farmers selected by simple random sampling and key informant. This study was conducted
