ABSTRAK

Keanekaragaman ikan di Sungai Silang, kecamatan Baktiraja, kabupaten
Humbang Hasundutan telah diteliti pada Mei 2016. Penentuan titik lokasi
penelitian menggunakan metode “Purposive Sampling”. Tujuh spesies ikan yang
diperoleh dari lokasi pengamatan diklasifikasikan ke dalam 2 ordo (Perciformes,
Cypriniformes). Keanekaragaman tertinggi ditemukan pada stasiun 4 dengan nilai
1,398 ind/m2 dan terendah pada stasiun 2 dengan nilai 1,076 ind/m2. Indeks
keanekaragaman terbesar ditemukan pada stasiun 4 dengan nilai 0,718, sementara
terendah ditemukan pada stasiun 2 dengan nilai 0,0553. Suhu dan padatan terlarut
(TDS) berkorelasi sangat kuat terhadap keanekaragaman ikan.
