Keanekaragaman dan Pola Sebaran Spesies Tumbuhan Asing Invasif Di Cagar Alam Yan Lapa

Abstract

Invasive alien plants species were plant species which come from other regions or countries and gift negative impact to the native species diversity. This research aimed to identify the vegetation composition and structure, invasive alien plant species diversity, and distribution pattern of invasive alien plant species in Yan Lapa Nature Reserve. The methods used were vegetation analysis using combination of line transect and nested plot and rapid assessment. The most dominant family was Araceae. As many as twelve invasive alien plants species were identified exist in Yan Lapa Nature Reserve. Those twelve species were Acmella uliginosa, Ageratum conyzoides, Centotheca lappace, Cyathula prostrata, Paspalum conjugatum, Clidemia hirta, Chromolaena odorata, Elephantopus scaber, Mikania micrantha, Cecropia peltata, Swietenia macrophylla dan Lantana camara. All invasive alien plant species distribution patterns were clustered.
