Evaluasi Spesies Avifauna yang Ditemukan di Area PT Arutmin Indonesia-NPLCT, Kota Baru, Kalimantan Selatan
Abstract: Avifauna is a biological aspect, which is
easy to use as a decision making to arrange the development of the
mining-product port area on postmining. The objective of the research was to
evaluate composition of avifauna species in the area of PT Arutmin Indonesia –
NPLCT based on the presence or the residence, the preference to the habitat type,
the dominant diet, and the propagation indicator. Evaluation was conducted
through grouping the field data or published databased on such four parameters
and comparing to the references. Among 57 avifauna species in the area, 39
are resident, because
they were always
found in all
observations. A single
species is an endemic to Kalimantan. Five other species may be migrants originating relatively far from the
research area. Avifauna was likely to
prefer secondary forest to other habitat types. Based on dominant diet, there
were frugivore, granivore, insectivore,
carnivore, nectarivore, omnivore,
and piscivore. Various
nests were found
and those reflected opportunity the birds to propagate
in the area
