INVENTARISASI TUMBUHAN BAWAH BERKHASIAT OBAT DI TAMAN NASIONAL DANAU SENTARUM KABUPATEN KAPUAS HULU PROVINSI KALIMANTAN BARAT
Abstract: Diversity of
biological resources in primary forest is not only limited to the woody plant
species, but also covered by underground plant which has diverse species high
diversity. This underground plant as one part of the forest ecosystem is a
plant that has potential as a medicine. The study aims to conduct an inventory
of underground plant species in Danau Sentarum National Park Kapuas Hulu
Regency West Kalimantan Province. The method used a plot inventory with studied
area of 6 hectares, and sampling intensity of 0.4% across the sample plots
with an area of 4 m2. Each rectangular-shaped sample plots with a size of 2 m
x 2 m, and total number of sample plots was 50 plots. The sample plots are arranged
systematically with distance between sample plots in a baseline was 10 m, while
the distance between the baselines was 100 m. A line was made perpendicular to
the river. The results showed there are 60 species underground plant which 42
species was a medicinal plants, 15 species was a shrubs, 27 species of herbs,
ferns totaled 7 species, fungi consists of 4 species, 16 species of grass and
18 species was other underground plant. The Riang Bejid plant (Medinilla
crassifolia) has the highest density value, frequency, INP and Shannon
diversity index than other underground plants. The INP of Riang Bejid was
20.625%. Based on the test of phytochemicals, underground plant has secondary
metabolites which contained alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins and sterols. This
underground plant has a potential as medicine and anti-cancer.
