“…Biodiversity in Indonesian forests was declined as reported from some references. Due to deforestation, primates in Sulawesi lost 14% of their habitat (Supriatna et al 2020), 274 bird species in Sundaland experienced average habitat losses of 16% (Symes et al 2018). Some species also become threatened with extinction due to the loss of forest cover, such as orangutan Sumatra Pongo abelii, orangutan Borneo Pongo pygmaeus (MoEF RI 2017), the Bali tiger Panthera tigris balica and Javan tiger Panthera tigris javanica went extinct (Wibisono and Pusparini 2010), and also many species of birds, amphibians and plants are threatened (Sala et al 2000;Sodhi et al 2004).…”

Abstract. Puspanti A, Kusumandari A, Faida LRW, Sudaryatno. 2021. Impact of rehabilitation and status area change on land cover and carbon storage in Paliyan Wildlife Reserve, Gunung Kidul, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 22: 3964-3971. This study analyzed the land cover change and carbon storage after the rehabilitation of Paliyan forest. This study mainly focused on the forest status during 1999-2019, especially after establishing a wildlife reserve forest and after rehabilitation activity. We used a combination of canopy density model, carbon conversion, and changes of management-related data to analyze land cover classes in two decades of 1999-2009 and 2009-2019 representing the change in status of the area, rehabilitation, and management dynamics through the time. The result shows that at baseline (1999), the status was still production plantation forest dominated by non-forest/open land with the most carbon storage in plantation forest of 5463.04 tons of carbon. In the first decade, important events occurred such as continuing illegal logging until 2001; change of area status to wildlife reserve forest; and initiation of rehabilitation in 2003. There was an increase in non-forest areas during the first decade, and carbon storage decreased mostly in plantation forests with only 867.71 tons of carbon remaining. In the second decade, rehabilitation has shown a positive impact in increasing forested areas, and altered non-forest to the forested area dominated by open forest/mixed agriculture area, followed by plantation forest, and secondary forest. In this decade, the legality of the area status and rehabilitation activity underwent to be more advance. The carbon storage also shows the positive result with the most increase of storage in plantation forest of 4072.932 tons carbon, or almost 4.7 times higher than that in 2009. Total carbon storage in 2019 was 13257.50 tons, or almost three times higher than that in 2009. The rehabilitation required a longer period to achieve a more dense forest condition as in 2019 the area was still dominated by open forest or agriculture. The smallholder farmers and high dependency of the surrounding community manage the land to feed their livestock, impede the rehabilitation and restoration process, and de-escalate the transition from non-forest to forest resulted in the more vegetated area. This result is important for stakeholders for designing appropriate forest-related policies and supporting further rehabilitation strategies.

Formerly the Indonesia forest rich in diversity and different kinds of populations in them but this time the forests of Indonesia into the world's endangered forests because of the result of the destruction of forests by cutting down trees in the wild. Wild forest logging becomes one of the factors of damage in forest area is currently logging the forest resulting in negative impact be bald. Although there are already rules governing logging prohibitions are still many wild is also the person who is doing the logging of trees in the forest are wild. The problem of this research is to 1) How is regulate about the prohibition on logging in wild? 2) How is the application of the sanctions for the perpetrators of the deforestation in the wild? Research methods used are normative, legal research methods with the study of the library of primary and secondary legal materials. Research results can be concluded that: 1) the prohibitions of wild forest logging is regulated in the law of forestry Number 41 Year 1999, Act No. 18 years 2013 on prevention and eradication of Forest Destruction and regulations Government forest protection Number 28-year 1985. 2) Penalties for perpetrators who commit illegal logging may include civil penalties, administrative sanctions and criminal sanctions. Of that society expected to care about the environment, because one of the causes of the occurrence of natural disasters, namely wild deforestation.

“…The species are as follows-Dipterocarpaceae (Shorea and Dryobalanops), Myristicaceae, Eurphobiaceae, Sapotaceae, Meliaceae, Moraceae, and Oleaceae. The wildlife habitat in the Gunung Leuser National Park area has been fragmented by various human activities (Supriatna et al 2020), thus becoming a major threat to wildlife survival. According to the Ministry of Forestry (2010), parts of the Gunung Leuser National Park have been fragmented by oil palm plantations.…”

Abstract. Zaitunah A, Samsuri, Ras S. 2021. Vegetation structure of Sumatran Orangutan (Pongo abelii) habitat in North Sumatra, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 22: 635-641. Gunung Leuser National Park forest in the Bukit Lawang section is the habitat of Sumatran Orangutan (Pongo abelii). There have been reports of the orangutans visiting the village. As some tree species are required for their sustenance to provide nests and food, there is a need to study species diversity availability in their habitat. Thus, the aim of the research was to analyze the composition and structure of the area's vegetation-this was done for the forestand mixed plantation. The sampling for the measurement of tree parameters was conducted using the line strip method. The strips (width 50 m, length 250 m) were constituted by a sub-plot measuring for seedling, pole, sapling, and trees. Within the sampling area, 181 species were found. Species within Dipterocarpaceae showed higher important value index (IVI) compared to other species in all layers. Shorea parviflora and Shorea ovalis were among the species with higher IVI in all the layers. The presence of species of Dipterocarpaceae and other species preferred by orangutans will support their quality of life. Therefore, orangutans prefer staying in the forest to entering the garden. Thus, it is concluded that their entry into the mixed gardens is related to the garden's proximity to the forest. Conservation efforts are needed to minimize the conflict between man and orangutan in the surrounding area.
