A. BIOLOGI UMUM

A.1 Alfred Russel Wallace: His Scieniic Research in Indonesia and Its Enduring Legacy Tujuan Peneliian : Memahami teori evolusi Alfred Russel Wallace Bidang Peneliian : Biologi Lama Peneliian : 05 lima bulan mulai 6 September 2010 Daerah Peneliian : Maluku Utara TernateGilolo di P. Halmahera; Maluku Kep. Aru; Bali dan Lombok Mitra Kerja : Universitas Padjadjaran Prof. Dr. Husein H. Bahi Abstrak Wallace was a scientist who acquired extensive knowledge during long periods of fieldwork. Beginning in 1848, he spent four years collecting and conducting research in Brazil with entomologist Henry Bates. Upon his return to England, Wallace wrote six academic papers and two books, including Palm Trees of the Amazon and Their Uses, and Travels on the Amazon. He soon planned a much longer trip to what was then known as the Malay Archipelago. Wallace spent eight years traveling approximately 14.000 miles during 70 different expeditions around the Archipelago. While there, he collected more than 125.000 specimens, including more than 80.000 beetles. More than one thousand of those specimens represented species new to science. Wallace is best known for independently proposing a theory of evolution that involved the natural selection of species. In February of 1858, Wallace wrote on the Tendency of Varieties to Depart Indefinitely from the Original Type, and sent it to Charles Darwin for comment. In his autobiography, Wallace wrote that he developed this paper while on the island of Ternate; however, historians have questioned this, saying it is more likely the paper was written on the nearby island of Gilolo, now known as Halmahera. This was not, however, Wallace’s only contribution to science. He made a number of other significant contributions to the development of evolutionary theory besides his work on natural selection. Among them is his identification of “The Wallace Line”. The line, which runs through the Indonesian archipelago, is a boundary that separates the ecozones of Australia and Asia. To the east of the line are organisms primarily related to 8 Sekretariat Perizinan Penelitian Asing Kementerian Riset Dan Teknologi DIREKTORI PENELITIAN ASING DI INDONESIA 2010 species from Australia, while to the west are species primarily related to thoses from Asia. His work on this line has led many to call him the “father of biogeography”. Wallace also postulated the hypothesis that natural selection can contribute to the reproductive isolation of forming species by encouraging the development of barriers to hybridization. This hypothesis is known as the “Wallace Effect”. Under this hypothesis, natural selection could cause two variations of a species to become reproductively isolated by encouraging barriers against hybridization.

BOX 791 Saratoga Springs, NY 12866 A.2 The Efects of Spaial and Temporal Variaion in Plant Producivity on the Populaion Ecology of Bornean Rain Forest Primate” Tujuan Peneliian : Mengkaji kualitas ekologi lanskap, kesuburan vegetasi musiman, kualitas habitat, dan produkiitas buah-buahan dan dampaknya terhadap populasi Gibbon dan monyet ekor merah Bidang Peneliian : Biologi Lama Peneliian : 12 duabelas bulan, mulai 24 Agustus 2010 Daerah Peneliian : Kalbar TN G. Palung Mitra Kerja : Fakultas Kehutanan, Universitas Tanjungpura M. Sofwan Anwari dan Romy Putra Abstrak The proposed research seeks to continue Dr. Andrew Marshall’s long-term research regarding how spatial and temporal variation in plant productivity affects populations of Bornean rainforest primates. The research will be conducted at Gunung Palung National Park, West Kalimantan, Indonesia TNGP for a period of one year: August 6, 2010-August 5, 2011. The objective of the proposed research is continue collection of data that will be used to test eight hypotheses designed to improve our understanding of how landscape- level variation in habitat quality and seasonality of fruit production impact the population ecology of white-bearded gibbons and red leaf monkeys. We hope to test the following hypotheses with respect to our target species: 9 Sekretariat Perizinan Penelitian Asing Kementerian Riset Dan Teknologi DIREKTORI PENELITIAN ASING DI INDONESIA 2010 • H1: Populaion success is higher in areas where preferred food items are more abundant • H2: Populaion success is higher in areas where fallback food items are more abundant • H3: Populaion success is higher in habitats of high lorisic diversity • H4: Populaion success is lower in montane forest due to increased thermoregulatory costs associated with living at high alitudes • H5A: Travel costs: Populaion success is lower where the distance between food trees uilized during periods of food shortage is greater • H5B: Travel costs: Populaion success is lower where canopy structure is less coninuous • H6: Populaion success in lower in habitats with high densiies of frugivorous vertebrate compeitors • H7: Montane habitats are demographic sinks for primate populaions • H8: Solidify sex raio and group demographics We will do this by collecing the following data: Monitoring groups of white-bearded gibbons and red leaf monkeys We will focus on recording unique distinguishing marks for all individuals in the populations, utilizing binoculars and photographs. This will enable us to identify migrants that move between groups, ascertain dispersal distances for individuals, and create a baseline upon which to build future studies of demography. Assessing habitat-speciic locomotor costs for primates in each forest type We will gather simple data on the locomotion of gibbons and leaf monkeys in each habitat through focal follows. For each individual followed we will record the actual distance traveled between successive feeding trees measured using a biodegradeable hip-chain string directly below the route traveled and the straight line distance between successive fruit trees. Habitat-specific locomotor costs will be calculated as the mean deflection from straight-line travel for each species in each habitat. Monitoring temperature and rainfall in each forest type Self explanatory Conducting regular census walks for other frugivorous vertebrates We will do this by creating two independent vertebrate census routes in each of the seven forest types along established trails. Each route will be walked at least four times each month between the hours of 5:30 and 11 am, and all observations of vertebrate frugivores will be recorded on standardized check sheets. 10 Sekretariat Perizinan Penelitian Asing Kementerian Riset Dan Teknologi DIREKTORI PENELITIAN ASING DI INDONESIA 2010 Monitoring of phenology of trees and lianas in each forest type Trained observes will scan the canopy of each tree and liana within each plot and note whether the tree is reproductively inactive or contains flower buds, flowers, immature, mature or ripe fruits. Standardizing botanical nomenclature of trees and lianas in each forest type It is now necessary to determine accurate botanical names of the stems in these plots. We will therefore spend considerable time checking and naming species in the field, and making herbarium quality collections to submit to the herbarium in Bogor for identification.

Konawe Selatan Mitra Kerja : Puslit Biologi - LIPI Prof. Dr. Elizabeth A. Widjaja Abstrak In connection with our International Cooperative Biodiversity Group ICBG project entitled “ Biodiversity Surveys in Indonesia and Discovery of Health and Energy Solutions”, we propose a series of field trips to southeastern Sulawesi to conduct biodiversity surveys and to collect specimens of plants, insects, microbes yeasts, filamentous fungi, and bacteria and vertebrates. The project is funded by the National Institutes of Health NIH and the United States Departement of Agriculture USDA; please see attached award letters. The first trip is proposed for July 15-August 15, 2009, with several additional trips in 2010 and 2011 see timetable below. The project is a collaboration between researchers from several institutions in the US and several institutions in Indonesia and some trips, including the first one, will involve participation of scientists from both countries while 11 Sekretariat Perizinan Penelitian Asing Kementerian Riset Dan Teknologi DIREKTORI PENELITIAN ASING DI INDONESIA 2010 others will involve only Indonesian scientists. Specimens collected on these expeditions will be deposited in museum collections in Indonesia and the US and will be screened for potential applications as therapeutic agents for specific human health issues and for developing bioenergy resources. The taxonomic groups to be surveyed include vascular plants, invertebrate animals including insects and other arthropods, vertebrate animals including birds and small mammals, and selected microbes, including filamentous fungi, yeasts, and bacteria. Screening for health and energy solutions will focus primarily on microbes, but plants for which promising ethnobotanical data exist will also be included in the screening for novel therapeutic agents. The health issues for which we intend to seek such agents include cancer, addictions, and immune disorders, including HIVAIDS. The energy applications screening will focus on isolating and identifying microbes that produce either high levels of lipids or cellulose enzymes. In addition to the health and energy applications, the surveys will improve our understanding of the biodiversity of Sulawesi, an island with a complex geological and biotic history, rich species diversity in several taxonomic groups, and high species endemism, and will be used to promote conservation and bioresource planning and policy in Indonesia.

Sofyan anwari, S.Si., M.Si., Fakultas Kehutanan, Universitas Tanjungpura Abstrak The proposed research seeks to understand the long-term dynamics that shape the hill forest tree community of Borneo. I will re-survey long-term vegetation plots established by Dr. Campbell Webb in 1995. During his original study, C. Webb found evidence that intraspecific density dependence and environmental habitat filtering contributed to the maintenance of species diversity in the hill forest. These findings were based upon short- term observations of community taxonomic structure comparing the seedling and adult stages. In the current study, I plan to make use of his original surveys by assessing adult and sedling performance growth, mortality, and recruitment in this community over the last 15 years. These measures will allow me to ask how long-term performance compares between trees at the seedling and adult stages across a topographic gradient. I will also make use of my time at the field site to establish feasible protocols for measuring anatomical traits underlying the standard functional traits assumed to influences performance: leaf size LS, specific leaf area SLA; leaf areamass, stem cross-sectional area, and stem wood density WD; massvolume. In this work, I will address whether standard functional traits are linked through hydraulic conductance and photosynthetic strategies. These questions will form the cornerstone of my dissertation in which I will investigate the assembly and maintenance of tree diversity across micro-habitats in a Bornean forest as influenced by species and trait composition. 14 Sekretariat Perizinan Penelitian Asing Kementerian Riset Dan Teknologi DIREKTORI PENELITIAN ASING DI INDONESIA 2010 A.4.1 Mr. Jonathan R.

Kayong Utara dan TN Gunung Palung Mitra Kerja : Pusat Peneliian Biologi LIPI Dr. Teguh Triono Abstrak The Indonesian archipelago contains tree communities of outstanding biodiversity and endemism, assembled biogeographically by the mixing of Laurasian and Gondwanan floras, during and potentially periods of wet and dry climate. The region represents the most dynamic and potentially informative biogeographic experiment on earth. Forest trees also form the basis of the vital Indonesian timber industry. At the same time, much of the information there is about tree species is not available to most Indonesian and global researchers, and there is a great need for capacity building in Indonesian biodiversity informatics. We intend to sample forest in and around the Gunung Palung National Park TNGP, West Kalimantan. This is a site where Webb has worked since 1989, and has been the subject of much research see online library at http:www.citeulike.orggroup4684 library. The site is an appropriate first location to test our new methods that can be applied at other site throughout Indonesia. Research at TNGP continues and builds upon work conducted there in 2009 and 2010, in which over 900 fertile specimens were collected, over 400 taxa were DNA sequenced, and data were made widely available see http: phylodiversity.netflora-tngp. Sites outside the park will also be included for botanical inventory because they may represent habitats no included in the Park e.g., Pulau Juanta.

As a portable source of nutrition and water, the coconut played a critical role in the ability of early humans to voyage, establish trade routes, and colonize lands across the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian Oceans. Both historically and today, this palm has myriad uses as source of food, drink, oil, thatch, fiber and lumber; it is described as one of Nature’s greatest gifts to mankind. Recently, coconut oil has been manufactured into bio-diesel in the South Pacific countries SOPAC. Over 12 million hectares are now planted in coconut in 86 tropical countries. The history of dispersal and domestication of this species is thus fundamentally intertwined with the human history in the tropics. Currently little is known about coconut’s domestication and dispersal history. Understanding the phylogeography of this species would provide profound insights into our own history on this planet. I propose to study: a the phylogeography of C. nucifera and its ancient dispersal; b the domestication origin of the ‘Dwarf ` type and genetic variation in cultivated forms globally; c the impact of human activities in homogenizing population structure across the species range; and d the possible geographical location of the undomesticated wild progenitor populations. I propose to sample 5-10 populations 30 trees per population in Central and South America, Micronesia, Cocos Keeling Atoll, Lizard Island Australia, Solomons, Samar Island Philippines, Flores Indonesia, south and east Kalimantan Indonesia, India and Srilanka. Leaf material dried in silica gel for DNA, as well as fruits and flowers, will be collected and vouchered for deposit in herbaria. This study on the phylogeography and domestication of this vitally important plant species will provide a new scaffolding for examining human activity and its impact on the landscape of the humid tropics. It will also contribute key information on the genetic diversity of wild coconut populations, an area of basic research that has long been neglected. 22 Sekretariat Perizinan Penelitian Asing Kementerian Riset Dan Teknologi DIREKTORI PENELITIAN ASING DI INDONESIA 2010 A.8.1 Ms. Bee Fong Gunn, M.Sc. 29 Tempat dan tgl. lahir : Penang, 28 – 02 – 1954 Warga Negara : Australia Jabatan : Ph.D. Student Insitusi : The Australian Naional Univerity, Research School of Biology Email : bee.gunnanu.edu.au Alamat : 464 Jardine St. Kingston, ACT, 2604, Australia A.9 Evoluionary History of SE Asian Shrews: Island Colonizaion, Speciaion, and Ecological Diversiicaion Tujuan Peneliian : Menelii karakterisik sejarah evolusi dari Berang-berang di Asia Tenggara Bidang Peneliian : Biologi Lama Peneliian : 12 dua belas bulan, mulai Agustus 2010 Daerah Peneliian : Jawa, Sumatra, Kalimantan dan Sulawesi Mitra Kerja : Fakultas MIPA – UI Dr. Jatna Supriatna Abstrak This document outlines a collaborative investigation of the evolutionary history of shrews on the islands of SE Asia. Extensive data have already been collected for most species from the Philippines and Malaysia, but relatively few data are available from endemic Indonesia species and Indonesia populations of widespread species. Shrews will be surveyed on the major islands of Indonesia and mitochondrial and nuclear DNA will sequences from those species and population of shrews. Newly generated DNA sequences will be combined with previously collected data. We will be infer phylogenetic relationship from combined sequences using modern, model-based techniques. Analysis of three shapes will be used test expected biogeographic relationships and fundamental hypotheses of tempo and mode of specification. Additionally, matrices of genetic distances and geographic co-occurrence will be used to test for a’sympatry threshold and models of character evolution will be employed to test for over dispersion among Indonesian, Canadian and American scientist. Training opportunities in biodiversity inventories and DNA sequencing will be provided to UI student and resulting publications will be co- authored by all collaborators. 23 Sekretariat Perizinan Penelitian Asing Kementerian Riset Dan Teknologi DIREKTORI PENELITIAN ASING DI INDONESIA 2010 A.9.1 Mr. Jacob Aaron Esselstyn 30 Tempat dan tgl. lahir : Oregon, 25 September 1973 Warga Negara : Amerika Serikat Jabatan : PhD.

Apart from deforestation and fragmentation of forest for land-use change, one increasing threat to rainforest is forest fires. As the survival of tropical forests is so important for the health of the whole earth it is important to investigate the resilience of tropical forests which have formally been burned and have now been set aside for protection. Animals higher up the food chain will have more difficulty in finding enough resources when the size andor the quality of their habitat is decreased. In this research the focus will be on the presence on Malayan sun bears Helarctos malayanus in formally burned and primary forest. Sun bears are important seed dispersers in tropical rainforests: therefore their presence is important for the ecological balance and the recovery of disturbed forest. The objective of this research is to measure how sunbears use forests that have formerly been disturbed, but are now protected. The response to fire disturbance will be measured. The question is whether these large mammals, which require large amounts of food resources and habitat, are using forests that in the near past have been disturbed, but now have had time to restore. Put in another way, the question is whether forests that have been disturbed in the past, but have been given a decade of protection, are now able to sustain large mammals, like sunbears. 24 Sekretariat Perizinan Penelitian Asing Kementerian Riset Dan Teknologi DIREKTORI PENELITIAN ASING DI INDONESIA 2010 A.10.1 Ms. Wiwit Juwita Sastramidjaja 31 Tempat dan tgl. lahir : Amstelveen, 16 – 02 – 1980 Warga Negara : Belanda Jabatan : Master Student Insitusi : University of Amsterdam, Insitute for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Dynamics Email : wiwitjuwitgmail.com Alamat : Wilhelminaplantsoen 31 2182 NJ Hillegom A.11 Ekspedisi Ilmiah Lengguru-Kaimana 2010 Tujuan Peneliian : Melakukan inventarisasi keanekaragaman Zoologi khususnya rainbowish Papua; mempelajari interaksi antara evolusi struktur karst, relasinya dengan evolusi keanekaragaman hayai permukaan dan bawah air serta mempelajari fosil zoologi dan analisis rekaman jejak peradaban manusia prasejarah di Kabupaten Kaimana.

Di atas mega spot-diversitas ini terhampar multi ekosistem dan diversitas biologiknya yang diyakini sebagai taman Eden yang masih tersisa di muka planet bumi. Namunpun demikian, divergensi biotopnya masih menjadi tantangan terbesar bagi sains. Di Papua Barat, tergurat dua dari tiga massif karstik terbesar didaratan besar New Guinea, salah satunya adalah formasi Lengguru, tepat di jantung Kabupaten Kaimana. Fragmen terrestrial tersebut menjadi motor tunggal terhadap spesiasi organisme asosiatif dan menjadi regulator sistem hidrologik yang boleh kita sebut sebagai laboraturium alam untuk studi biodiversitas. Tujuan Ekspedisi • Inventori, inventarisasi keanekaregaman zoology khususnya rainbowish Papua sebagai salah satu jenis ikan ekonomis pening • Studi interaksi antara evolusi structural karst, relasinya dengan evolusi keanekaregaman hayai permukaan dan bawah tanah • Studi fosil zoology dan analisis rekam-jejak peradaban manusia prasejarah di Kabupaten Kaimana A.11.1 Mr. Laurent Michel M.

A.12 Efects of Experimentally Altered Ant Communiies on Leaf-Herbivores and Spider Guids in Indonesian Cocoa Plantaions Tujuan Peneliian : Mempelajari hama dan penyakit tanaman coklat Bidang Peneliian : Biologi Lama Peneliian : 4 empat bulan, mulai Mei 2010 Daerah Peneliian : Sulteng TN Lore Lindu Mitra Kerja : Universitas Tadulako Drs. Elijonnahdi, M.Si 29 Sekretariat Perizinan Penelitian Asing Kementerian Riset Dan Teknologi DIREKTORI PENELITIAN ASING DI INDONESIA 2010 Abstrak Deforestation and agricultural intensification are the most prominent threats of biodiversity in the tropics. Agroforestries, especially multi-strata systems such as coffee and cacao plantations, are one of the tools to combine the needs of biodiversity conservation and humans in these regions. These agricultural systems can accommodate a sizeable proportion of species of neighbouring pristine forests and are likely to support important ecosystem functions. The understanding of such services, like predation, is essential to help maintain agricultural production in the light of successful biodiversity conservation. In our experiments we will focus on ants and spiders being the most abundant terrestrial arthropod predators. We will comprise the influence of ant communities and special ant species Philidris sp. and Dolichoderus thoracicus Smith on herbivory and spider abundance in cacao plantations to answer the following questions: 1 How does the presence of ants in general and the presence of Philidris sp. or D. thoracicus in particular affect herbivory and the density of herbivores? 2 Does the effect of ants on herbivore community composition depend on the ant community? 3 Are spiders affected by the presence of ants, and if so does the effect differ between trees dominated by Philidris sp. and trees dominated by a more diverse ant community? We will sample trees subjected to four different treatments: 1 control no manipulation 2 ant exclusion by placing a band of sticky insect glue around the trunk of the trees and offering ants toxic protein baits to remove existing colonies 3 introduction of Philidris sp. within the cacao trees by placing nests on the tree 4 introduction of Dolichoderus thoracicus Smith within the cacao trees. For each treatment we will evaluate herbivory, herbivore and spider abundance and identify them taxonomically. The influence of ants in general and of Philidris sp. and Dolichoderus thoracicus Smith in particular on herbivory, herbivore density and species composition, as well as spider density will be analysed based on the data pooled per subplot using linear mixed models accounting for the spatial autocorrelation of subplots within plots.

Renny Kurnia Hadiaty Abstrak Understanding the mechanisms forcing speciation remains a major challenge in evolutionary biology. Evolving radiations restricted to habitat islands allow investigating early stages of phenotypic adaptation and associated fitness consequences. We plan to test for individual fitness consequences of foraging adaptation in the comparatively small but phenotypically diverse radiation of sailfin silverside fish Atheriniformes : Telmatherinidae endemic to the ancient Malili Lakes system in Central Sulawesi Indonesia. Using a combined acquisition of fitness proxies and a set of morphological key characters we are planning to generate a phenotypic fitness landscapes of the whole sharpfin species flock and the analyzes of functional aspects of foraging success. The aim of the proposed research is to generate a fitness landscapes for sharpfin Telmatherina, and to explore fitness consequences arising from candidate trait variation. To reach the target, we plan : i to evaluate individual fitness through fitness proxiest lever weight, hyposomatic index; ii to clarify trophic niche diversity through stomach content and stabile isotope analyses; iii to test for fitness consequences of candidate structures.

In Indonesia, high demand for lorises as pets, combined with loris’inability to escape hunters due to slow evasion strategies, has lead to their constant supply in trade with a subsequent influx of confiscated individuals in rescue centres. At many sites, confiscated lorises are hard-released with no monitoring. To ensure welfare of released individuals and wild populations, improved strategies are needed for reintroduction restocking projects. Monitoring of nine newly-seized N. Javanicus, for the purposes of potential release was conducted over three months in 2009. Release of the lorises deemed to be in good health and possess adequate survinal skills is proposed to take place on Gunung Salak in 2010. Release sites will be assessed for sufficient food sources and must be far enough away from any human activities to minimize the chance of re-capture. Post-release monitoring using radio collars will take place over the subsequent months following the release to ensure the welfare of the released individuals. Furthermore, the monitoring will enable the collection of baseline data on ecology, range use and sociality of this highly cryptic species. Successes and failures of the project will be analysed in a report for dissemination to other animal welfare agencies, government officials and conservationists.
