“…The results of this study indicate that there are differences with [7] who conducted research on one of the large palm oil plantations in Ogan Komering Ilir Regency, South Sumatra. Where shrubs are the type of land cover with the lowest number of herpetofauna species, with 6 species and the most types are in palm oil land cover types with 10 species.…”

The palm oil industry is one of the national strategic industries that must gradually apply the concept of green economy where the use of biodiversity (to reduce the use of chemicals in increasing land fertility and controlling pests/diseases) should be optimized in various aspects of management. Therefore, the potential for species diversity and the role of biodiversity in palm oil agro-ecosystems needs to be investigated, one of which is herpetofauna diversity. Data collection on the diversity of herpetofauna species was carried out simultaneously on seven types of land cover for PT BSM’s palm oil plantations using the Visual Encounter Survey (VES) method. The results showed that the number of herpetofauna species varied according to land cover type with a total of 26 species. The highest number of species and individuals was found in shrubs (12 species and 18 individuals). While the lowest number of species and individuals was found in smallholder palm oil plantations 1 (5 species and 9 individuals). Based on the list of herpetofauna species in the study area, nine of these species have potential roles for the oil palm agro-ecosystem. These roles as biological control (predators, parasitoids, pathogens) include Takydromus sexlineatus, Eutropis multifasciata, Chalcorana chalconota, Occydoziga sumtrana, Malayopython reticulatus, Bungarus candidus, and Naja sumatrana, as well as decomposition controllers, Varanus salvator. The Shrubs land cover has a complete composisition of the roles of herpetofauna, while in the others land cover, have one individuals that play a role in the oil palm agroecosystem.

“…The conversion of secondary forests to oil palm plantations impacted on loss and gain of several communities such as bird, mammal, herpetofauna, butterfly, and soil macroinvertebrate (Erniwati and Santosa, 2019;Ginoga et al, 2019;Santosa and Rejeki, 2019;Yeo et al, 2020). Similar to secondary forests, the land cover change from shrubs to oil palm plantation can affect species diversity of tropical vegetation and wildlife species such as herpetofauna and mammal (Nugroho and Santosa, 2018;Hilwan and Santosa, 2019;Rahmadiyanti and Santosa, 2019;Al-Faritsi and Santosa, 2021).…”

Several previous studies stated that land cover changes to oil palm plantations caused the loss of wildlife species, one of which was from the mammals. Therefore, data on the magnitude of this type of loss is needed. This study estimates the amount of loss and gain of mammal species due to the development of oil palm plantations. Data were taken by direct observation (strip transect method) in parallel at the oil palm plantation of PT. Rambang Agro Jaya, South Sumatra. This research was conducted on the land cover before (shrubs) and after the development of oil palm plantations. The study shows that the change from shrubs to oil palm plantations does not change the number of mammal species but increases the species richness index and decreases the species richness index. The similarity index of shrubs and oil palm plantation is 0.56. The development of oil palm plantations also causes the loss and gain of mammal species with the same percentage of 67%. The presence of mammals in oil palm plantation is thought to be due to the feed availability.
