| dc.description.abstract | Pangkalan Telok Village Forest is a village forest managed by a community group in Pangkalan Telok Village, Nanga
Tayap District, Ketapang Regency, West Kalimantan Province. The Community Group that manages Pangkalan Telok VF
has a strong commitment to sustainable forest management. To minimize the negative impact of forest exploitation on
plant biodiversity in the area, it is necessary to identify the presence of protected and/or rare plant species, their threats,
as well as management and monitoring efforts for biodiversity that need to be carried out. This research aims to identify
the habitat conditions and biodiversity of plants in the Pangkalan Telok VF area, Ketapang Regency, West Kalimantan
Province. The richness of plant species found in the Pangkalan Telok VF area is 168 types which can be grouped into 58
families. Based on location, the highest plant species richness is found in transect 17 (65 species) and the least is found
in transect 13 (33 species). The diversity of plant species in the Pangkalan Telok VF area ranges from low to high (0.000
to 3.202), while the density of plant species ranges from 0 to 31,250 ind./ha. Based on its protection status, in the Pangkalan
Telok VF area there are no protected plant species according to Minister of Environment and Forestry Regulation No.
P.106 of 2018; however, 1 type of plant was found which was included in the CITES Appendix II List, 5 types of plants
were included in the VU/Vulnerable category, 1 type of plant was included in the EN/Endangered category, and 1 type of
plant was included in the CR/Critically Endangered category according to IUCN. There are 4 threats to plant biodiversity
in the Pangkalan Telok VF area, namely (1) illegal logging, (2) area encroachment, (3) insufficient availability of resources
to manage and monitor plants, and (4) forest and land fires. Plant biodiversity management activities in the Pangkalan
Telok VF area that need to be carried out include boundary marking, internal and external outreach, prevention and
protection of plant biodiversity, further surveys of the population status of plant species, as well as coordination with
relevant agencies and the community. Plant biodiversity monitoring activities that need to be carried out include biodiversity
and plant density, the effectiveness of preventing and overcoming disturbances to plant biodiversity, and monitoring the
intensity of disturbances to plant biodiversity. | id |
