Abstract
In this report we summarise the results of our general botanical survey and plot study in the
Gunung Lumut Protection forest. Surveys were carried out at three main locations, namely
Gunung Lumut itself, the logged lowland area around the base camp and the undisturbed lowland
forest on limestone near Rantau Layung. For the plot studies some additional locations were
added for comparison (undisturbed lowland forest near Gunung Meratus, undisturbed lowland
forest near Mului, and undisturbed coastal forest of Sungai Wain near Balikpapan). We found that
i) floristically and structurally, the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest is a typical example of the
forests that can be found on the Meratus Mountain Range, ii) the floristic diversity is high, as
might be expected for a forest in Southeast Borneo, iii) the environmental heterogeneity of the
area (soils and altitude range) contributes strongly to its floristic and structural diversity, and iv)
the logged forests within the area are as diverse as the undisturbed forests. We conclude that the
Gunung Lumut Protection Forest is one of the last remaining large tracts of relatively undisturbed
forest in Southeast Borneo, and it is very important as a representative sample of the forests in
this region. When protected effectively, the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest (as a typical
example of the Meratus Mountain Range forest) could, together with the Sungai Wain forest (as a
typical example of lowland coastal forest), conserve much of the plant diversity in this region for
the future.
Introduction
Phytogeographical setting of the Gunung Lumut Forest
The Gunung Lumut Protection forest is situated in one of the floristically most diverse regions of
Borneo (Fig. 1). In a large floristic study on tree genera from 28 plots from across Borneo (Slik et
al. 2003), Kalimantan was found to be a floristically rather homogeneous area that contrasted
sharply with tree generic composition in forests from Malaysian Borneo and Brunei (Fig. 2).
Based on these results we expect that the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest will be highly diverse
in tree genera as well, even though it might show a lot of generic overlap with other forests in
Kalimantan. At the species level there might be some surprises since the area is a rather isolated
mountain range with peaks up to ca. 1200 m altitude and part of it is formed by limestone
outcrops, which are usually associated with high levels of plant endemism.

Research Locations
The current study was carried out at four locations within the Gunung Lumut Protection forest
(Map1): i) Lowland undisturbed forest in Mului; ii) Undisturbed montane forest on Gunung
Lumut; iii) Selectively (mid 80s) and illegally (still going on) logged forest at the Base Camp;
and iv) Undisturbed forest on limestone in Rantau Layung. For comparison, two forest sites
outside the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest were added: Sungai Wain (an undisturbed lowland
coastal forest15 km NW of Balikpapan) and Meratus (an undisturbed lowland forest at the
northern end of the Meratus Mountain Range, ca. 80 km west of Balikpapan).

Aims of this study
Through general surveys of botanical diversity and more structured plot inventories, our aim is to
obtain a general picture of the forest structure, floristic diversity and floristic composition of the
Gunung Lumut Protection Forest and relate these patterns to other nearby forests.
Methods
Botanical surveys
At all research locations general botanical surveys were carried out. These surveys included all
plant groups, with special emphasis on ferns and lianas. Surveys were planned in such a way that
they covered the full range of available micro-habitats at each site. Plants were collected on sight,
i.e. whenever a fertile plant was encountered it was collected, labeled, measured (diameter and
height), described (growth form, flower and/or fruit characteristics, habitat characteristics, etc.),
photographed, and its position determined with GPS. Collected plants were stored in airtight
plastic bags with low amounts of 70% alcohol (Schweinfurt method). These collections were later
dried and pressed in the Wanariset Herbarium (East Kalimantan) and send to Bogor, Leiden and
several other herbaria around the world.
Plot layout and measurements
At each location we established plots of 10 x 10 m at 50 m intervals along line transects, with the
exception of the plots on Gunung Lumut, which were spaced at 50 m altitude intervals. Within
each 10 x 10 m plot we measured (height and diameter) and identified all trees with a height taller
than 1.3 m. On Gunung Lumut we used a slightly adapted method in which we sampled 50 trees
in each plot, whereby we either extended or decreased the size of the plots depending on the
surface area needed to collect 50 individuals (sensu Sheil et al. 2003). Within each plot a subplot
of 3 x 3 m was established in which all ferns were measured (number of individuals per species
and cover estimate). All samples of trees and ferns were collected, and vouchers are present at the
Nationaal Herbarium Nederland, Leiden University Branch.
For each 10 x 10 m plot a number of habitat variables were measured as well. These included:
location (GPS-coordinate), altitude above sea level, inclination, topographic position (swamp,
river valley, lower slope, middle slope, upper slope, ridge), canopy openness, direct- and diffuse
light, leaf area index, signs of disturbance (gaps, skid trails, tree stumps, paths).
Data analyses
Forest structure and environmental data. Differences in tree density (split up in diameter classes
of 0-2.5 cm, 2.5-5 cm, 5-10 cm and > 10 cm), canopy openness, direct- and diffuse-light, and leaf
area index between locations were determined with Kruskal-Wallis tests.
Diversity data. Fisher’s-alpha for tree genera was calculated for each plot. Species level data were
excluded because these were not sufficiently well identified yet. Differences in Fisher’s-alpha
between locations were then determined using Kruskal-Wallis tests. Furthermore, to determine
the total increase in genera with number of individuals for each location, we calculated generaindividual curves based on 10 random draws per location (i.e. each location curve is based on the
average of 10 random curves from the same location). These individual-genera curves give an
indication of the rate of increase in genera with individuals and also show if the maximum
number of genera present in the area has been reached or not. For ferns we constructed a speciesarea curve (increase in species with addition of plots), whereby we only calculated one replicate
per curve.
Generic compositional data. Differences in floristic composition between locations were
determined using Principal Component Analysis based on number of individuals per genus per
plot. Data were standardized and log-transformed to reduce the effects of abundant genera on the
analysis. This was done for all locations (including Sungai Wain and Meratus) and for locations
in the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest only.
Altitudinal gradient analyses. To determine the effect of altitude on forest structure, generic
diversity and generic composition for the plots on Gunung Lumut, both simple and polynomial
regression analysis was applied. Generic composition data was based on the location of the plots
on the first axis of a PCA that was based on number of individuals per genus in the Gunung
Lumut plots only.
All analyses were carried out with Statgraphics for Windows 2.1 (Statistical Graphic Corp.,
Rockville, USA), except the Principal Component Analyses which were performed using MVSP
3.01 (Kovach Computing Services, Anglesey, UK).

Of the higher plants, one was new for East Kalimantan (Aristolochiaceae, Aristolochia
nviculilimba), one was new for Borneo (Orchidaceae, Plocoglottis quadrifolia, identified from
photograph) and one was new for the Malesian region (Celastraceae, Lophopetalum wallichii).
We also found a Bornean endemic family that was previously only known from Northern Borneo
(Scyphostegiaceae, Scyphostegia borneensis). Whether we encountered new species is as yet
unknown. For the ferns we found one new species for East Kalimantan (Tectaria inopinnata), and
two new species for Borneo (Asplenium cf. subnormale and Pneumatopteris brooksii). Some
Bornean endemics that were encountered are: Pyrrosia platyphylla, Tectaria inopinnata,
Selliguea metacoela and Pyrrosia kinabaluensis. Additionally we found several rare species, a.o.
Goniophlebium mehipitense and Pteris holttummii, and possible new species in the genera
Hymenophyllum, Grammitis and Selliguea. Specific limestone Pteridophyte flora elements were
only occasionally found, and appear to be present in low numbers only.
Forest structure, genus diversity and environmental data
Tree densities varied significantly between locations, with rather low densities in the logged
forest around the base camp, and very high densities in Sungai Wain, an undisturbed coastal
forest near Balikpapan (Table 2). Generic diversity on a per plot basis is especially low on the
Gunung Lumut mountain and at Rantau Layung (Table 2).

Diversity curves
The undisturbed forests on limestone in Rantau Layung and the undisturbed montane forests on
Gunung Lumut are among the least diverse forest locations in this study, while the undisturbed
forests at the foot of Gunung Meratus and the logged forests around the Base Camp are among
the most diverse (Figure 3). Undisturbed lowland forest at the foot of Gunung Lumut (Mului) and
the undisturbed coastal forest near Balikpapan (Sungai Wain) score average diversity.

Floristic patterns
The main floristic difference detected in the PCA that includes all studied forest locations is that
of the coastal Sungai Wain forest versus the more inland forests that are located on the Meratus
Mountain range (Fig. 5). However, also within these Meratus Mountain Range forests there is a
clear geographic gradient detected, i.e. most locations are characterized by specific floristic
compositions at the generic level.

Within the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest all locations are separated rather well based on their
generic composition (Fig. 6). Noteworthy here is that the undisturbed lowland forest plots in
Mului have a very variable genera composition that spans the whole range found in the other
three forest locations along the second PCA axis. Also, the logged forests near the Base Camp
overlap considerably with those of the undisturbed forests near Mului, indicating that they closely
resemble undisturbed forest.

Altitudinal patterns
The number of trees increases significantly with increasing altitude on Gunung Lumut (Fig. 7).
This relation was found to be strongest for treelets, i.e. trees with a diameter between 5 and 10 cm
(Table 4). Only for saplings (dbh 0-2.5 cm) we found no significant relation with altitude. None
of the environmental and tree diversity measures showed any significant relation with altitude.
The floristic composition of the plots, however, changed significantly with altitude (Fig. 8).

Discussion
The Gunung Lumut Protection Forest in relation to other Bornean forests
This study shows that the forests of the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest are floristically very
similar to the forests at the foot of Gunung Meratus. This is perhaps not so surprising since
Gunung Meratus forms the northern extension of the Meratus Mountain Range of which Gunung
Lumut is also a part. Floristically, the forests on this mountain range differ considerably from the
coastal lowland forests near Balikpapan. This difference is even larger than the difference
between undisturbed, logged, montane and limestone forests that were studied in the Gunung
Lumut Protection Forest. Thus, the coastal Sungai Wain forest and the interior Meratus Range
forests complement each other, i.e. for plant conservation it would make good sense to conserve
both types of forests.
Earlier studies have shown that both Sungai Wain and Meratus form part of a large floristic
region that more or less covers the whole of Kalimantan (Slik et al. 2003). The close floristic
similarity between the Gunung Lumut area and the Meratus area means that Gunung Lumut
Protection Forest also forms a typical example of this floristic region. The plant diversity in the
Gunung Lumut Protection Forest was comparable to that of Meratus and Sungai Wain, indicating
that also in that respect, the Gunung Lumut area forms a typical example for the region, which
according to Slik et al. (2003) harbours the largest tree diversity in Borneo.
Structurally the forests in the Gunung Lumut area are very similar to the forests at the foot of
Gunung Meratus, which in turn differ significantly from the coastal forest near Balikpapan which
has much higher stem densities.
Differences within the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest
Species composition within the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest differs considerably, i.e.
lowland forest (Mului and Base Camp) could be separated from montane (Gunung Lumut) and
limestone (Rabtau Layung) forest. This means that these different locations complement each
other floristically, i.e. each location adds to the diversity of the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest.
The most deviating locations in the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest, both in terms of plant
diversity and structure, are Rantau Layung and Gunung Lumut itself. This is probably related to
soil properties (Rantau Layung) and altitude (Gunung Lumut). This shows that the environmental
heterogeneity of the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest is an important contributor to the floristic
diversity of the area. This effect is even stronger for fern composition and diversity, both of
which were closely linked with altitude (which is probably a proxy for air humidity).
Another finding of this study is that the logged forest (Base Camp) was still very diverse and
floristically not very different from undisturbed forest nearby (Mului), even though compositional
difference between plots in the logged forest was much lower than in undisturbed forest. This
means that although large parts of the Gunung Lumut area have been logged in the past, this has
probably had only limited effect on species diversity and composition, i.e. for conservation these
logged forests are just as valuable as the undisturbed forests in the Gunung Lumut area.
Conclusions
1. Floristically and structurally the Gunung Lumut Protection forest is a typical example of
the forests that can be found on the Meratus Mountain Range.
2. The plant diversity is typical for southeast Borneo, i.e. very high compared to other parts
of the island.
3. The environmental heterogeneity (soils and altitude range) of the Gunung Lumut area
contributes to the floristic and structural diversity of this protection forest.
4. The logged forests within the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest are as diverse as the
undisturbed forests and are also floristically very rich.
Conservation recommendation
The Gunung Lumut area is one of the last remaining large tracts of relatively undisturbed forest in
southeast Borneo, and is very important as a representative sample of the forests in this region,
which was found to belong to the most diverse plant regions in Borneo. When protected
effectively, the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest could, together with the Sungai Wain forest (as
a typical example of lowland coastal forest), conserve much of the plant diversity in this region
for the future.

Abstract
In this report we summarise the results of our general botanical survey and plot study in the
Gunung Lumut Protection forest. Surveys were carried out at three main locations, namely
Gunung Lumut itself, the logged lowland area around the base camp and the undisturbed lowland
forest on limestone near Rantau Layung. For the plot studies some additional locations were
added for comparison (undisturbed lowland forest near Gunung Meratus, undisturbed lowland
forest near Mului, and undisturbed coastal forest of Sungai Wain near Balikpapan). We found that
i) floristically and structurally, the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest is a typical example of the
forests that can be found on the Meratus Mountain Range, ii) the floristic diversity is high, as
might be expected for a forest in Southeast Borneo, iii) the environmental heterogeneity of the
area (soils and altitude range) contributes strongly to its floristic and structural diversity, and iv)
the logged forests within the area are as diverse as the undisturbed forests. We conclude that the
Gunung Lumut Protection Forest is one of the last remaining large tracts of relatively undisturbed
forest in Southeast Borneo, and it is very important as a representative sample of the forests in
this region. When protected effectively, the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest (as a typical
example of the Meratus Mountain Range forest) could, together with the Sungai Wain forest (as a
typical example of lowland coastal forest), conserve much of the plant diversity in this region for
the future.
Introduction
Phytogeographical setting of the Gunung Lumut Forest
The Gunung Lumut Protection forest is situated in one of the floristically most diverse regions of
Borneo (Fig. 1). In a large floristic study on tree genera from 28 plots from across Borneo (Slik et
al. 2003), Kalimantan was found to be a floristically rather homogeneous area that contrasted
sharply with tree generic composition in forests from Malaysian Borneo and Brunei (Fig. 2).
Based on these results we expect that the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest will be highly diverse
in tree genera as well, even though it might show a lot of generic overlap with other forests in
Kalimantan. At the species level there might be some surprises since the area is a rather isolated
mountain range with peaks up to ca. 1200 m altitude and part of it is formed by limestone
outcrops, which are usually associated with high levels of plant endemism.

Research Locations
The current study was carried out at four locations within the Gunung Lumut Protection forest
(Map1): i) Lowland undisturbed forest in Mului; ii) Undisturbed montane forest on Gunung
Lumut; iii) Selectively (mid 80s) and illegally (still going on) logged forest at the Base Camp;
and iv) Undisturbed forest on limestone in Rantau Layung. For comparison, two forest sites
outside the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest were added: Sungai Wain (an undisturbed lowland
coastal forest15 km NW of Balikpapan) and Meratus (an undisturbed lowland forest at the
northern end of the Meratus Mountain Range, ca. 80 km west of Balikpapan).

Aims of this study
Through general surveys of botanical diversity and more structured plot inventories, our aim is to
obtain a general picture of the forest structure, floristic diversity and floristic composition of the
Gunung Lumut Protection Forest and relate these patterns to other nearby forests.
Methods
Botanical surveys
At all research locations general botanical surveys were carried out. These surveys included all
plant groups, with special emphasis on ferns and lianas. Surveys were planned in such a way that
they covered the full range of available micro-habitats at each site. Plants were collected on sight,
i.e. whenever a fertile plant was encountered it was collected, labeled, measured (diameter and
height), described (growth form, flower and/or fruit characteristics, habitat characteristics, etc.),
photographed, and its position determined with GPS. Collected plants were stored in airtight
plastic bags with low amounts of 70% alcohol (Schweinfurt method). These collections were later
dried and pressed in the Wanariset Herbarium (East Kalimantan) and send to Bogor, Leiden and
several other herbaria around the world.
Plot layout and measurements
At each location we established plots of 10 x 10 m at 50 m intervals along line transects, with the
exception of the plots on Gunung Lumut, which were spaced at 50 m altitude intervals. Within
each 10 x 10 m plot we measured (height and diameter) and identified all trees with a height taller
than 1.3 m. On Gunung Lumut we used a slightly adapted method in which we sampled 50 trees
in each plot, whereby we either extended or decreased the size of the plots depending on the
surface area needed to collect 50 individuals (sensu Sheil et al. 2003). Within each plot a subplot
of 3 x 3 m was established in which all ferns were measured (number of individuals per species
and cover estimate). All samples of trees and ferns were collected, and vouchers are present at the
Nationaal Herbarium Nederland, Leiden University Branch.
For each 10 x 10 m plot a number of habitat variables were measured as well. These included:
location (GPS-coordinate), altitude above sea level, inclination, topographic position (swamp,
river valley, lower slope, middle slope, upper slope, ridge), canopy openness, direct- and diffuse
light, leaf area index, signs of disturbance (gaps, skid trails, tree stumps, paths).
Data analyses
Forest structure and environmental data. Differences in tree density (split up in diameter classes
of 0-2.5 cm, 2.5-5 cm, 5-10 cm and > 10 cm), canopy openness, direct- and diffuse-light, and leaf
area index between locations were determined with Kruskal-Wallis tests.
Diversity data. Fisher’s-alpha for tree genera was calculated for each plot. Species level data were
excluded because these were not sufficiently well identified yet. Differences in Fisher’s-alpha
between locations were then determined using Kruskal-Wallis tests. Furthermore, to determine
the total increase in genera with number of individuals for each location, we calculated generaindividual curves based on 10 random draws per location (i.e. each location curve is based on the
average of 10 random curves from the same location). These individual-genera curves give an
indication of the rate of increase in genera with individuals and also show if the maximum
number of genera present in the area has been reached or not. For ferns we constructed a speciesarea curve (increase in species with addition of plots), whereby we only calculated one replicate
per curve.
Generic compositional data. Differences in floristic composition between locations were
determined using Principal Component Analysis based on number of individuals per genus per
plot. Data were standardized and log-transformed to reduce the effects of abundant genera on the
analysis. This was done for all locations (including Sungai Wain and Meratus) and for locations
in the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest only.
Altitudinal gradient analyses. To determine the effect of altitude on forest structure, generic
diversity and generic composition for the plots on Gunung Lumut, both simple and polynomial
regression analysis was applied. Generic composition data was based on the location of the plots
on the first axis of a PCA that was based on number of individuals per genus in the Gunung
Lumut plots only.
All analyses were carried out with Statgraphics for Windows 2.1 (Statistical Graphic Corp.,
Rockville, USA), except the Principal Component Analyses which were performed using MVSP
3.01 (Kovach Computing Services, Anglesey, UK).

genera (Appendix 1). Additionally, 278 fern collections were made consisting of at least 181 taxa
(Appendix 2). During the plot tree inventories we encountered 59 plant families consisting of 163
genera and 2798 individuals (Appendix 3).

Table 1. Overview of number of collections per growth form (based on the botanical survey for fertile
plants by P. Hovenkamp, M. Iqbal and N. Raes).
Of the higher plants, one was new for East Kalimantan (Aristolochiaceae, Aristolochia
nviculilimba), one was new for Borneo (Orchidaceae, Plocoglottis quadrifolia, identified from
photograph) and one was new for the Malesian region (Celastraceae, Lophopetalum wallichii).
We also found a Bornean endemic family that was previously only known from Northern Borneo
(Scyphostegiaceae, Scyphostegia borneensis). Whether we encountered new species is as yet
unknown. For the ferns we found one new species for East Kalimantan (Tectaria inopinnata), and
two new species for Borneo (Asplenium cf. subnormale and Pneumatopteris brooksii). Some
Bornean endemics that were encountered are: Pyrrosia platyphylla, Tectaria inopinnata,
Selliguea metacoela and Pyrrosia kinabaluensis. Additionally we found several rare species, a.o.
Goniophlebium mehipitense and Pteris holttummii, and possible new species in the genera
Hymenophyllum, Grammitis and Selliguea. Specific limestone Pteridophyte flora elements were
only occasionally found, and appear to be present in low numbers only.
Forest structure, genus diversity and environmental data
Tree densities varied significantly between locations, with rather low densities in the logged
forest around the base camp, and very high densities in Sungai Wain, an undisturbed coastal
forest near Balikpapan (Table 2). Generic diversity on a per plot basis is especially low on the
Gunung Lumut mountain and at Rantau Layung (Table 2).

Table 2. Average generic diversity and tree densities within the plots at each location, split up in several
diameter classes. Significant differences within each column are indicated with different characters.
Canopy openness and associated diffuse light levels are especially high in the logged forests
around the Base Camp and on Gunung Lumut, possibly due to rather low leaf area indices for

Diversity curves
The undisturbed forests on limestone in Rantau Layung and the undisturbed montane forests on
Gunung Lumut are among the least diverse forest locations in this study, while the undisturbed
forests at the foot of Gunung Meratus and the logged forests around the Base Camp are among
the most diverse (Figure 3). Undisturbed lowland forest at the foot of Gunung Lumut (Mului) and
the undisturbed coastal forest near Balikpapan (Sungai Wain) score average diversity.

Floristic patterns
The main floristic difference detected in the PCA that includes all studied forest locations is that
of the coastal Sungai Wain forest versus the more inland forests that are located on the Meratus
Mountain range (Fig. 5). However, also within these Meratus Mountain Range forests there is a
clear geographic gradient detected, i.e. most locations are characterized by specific floristic
compositions at the generic level.

Within the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest all locations are separated rather well based on their
generic composition (Fig. 6). Noteworthy here is that the undisturbed lowland forest plots in
Mului have a very variable genera composition that spans the whole range found in the other
three forest locations along the second PCA axis. Also, the logged forests near the Base Camp
overlap considerably with those of the undisturbed forests near Mului, indicating that they closely
resemble undisturbed forest.

Altitudinal patterns
The number of trees increases significantly with increasing altitude on Gunung Lumut (Fig. 7).
This relation was found to be strongest for treelets, i.e. trees with a diameter between 5 and 10 cm
(Table 4). Only for saplings (dbh 0-2.5 cm) we found no significant relation with altitude. None
of the environmental and tree diversity measures showed any significant relation with altitude.
The floristic composition of the plots, however, changed significantly with altitude (Fig. 8).

Discussion
The Gunung Lumut Protection Forest in relation to other Bornean forests
This study shows that the forests of the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest are floristically very
similar to the forests at the foot of Gunung Meratus. This is perhaps not so surprising since
Gunung Meratus forms the northern extension of the Meratus Mountain Range of which Gunung
Lumut is also a part. Floristically, the forests on this mountain range differ considerably from the
coastal lowland forests near Balikpapan. This difference is even larger than the difference
between undisturbed, logged, montane and limestone forests that were studied in the Gunung
Lumut Protection Forest. Thus, the coastal Sungai Wain forest and the interior Meratus Range
forests complement each other, i.e. for plant conservation it would make good sense to conserve
both types of forests.
Earlier studies have shown that both Sungai Wain and Meratus form part of a large floristic
region that more or less covers the whole of Kalimantan (Slik et al. 2003). The close floristic
similarity between the Gunung Lumut area and the Meratus area means that Gunung Lumut
Protection Forest also forms a typical example of this floristic region. The plant diversity in the
Gunung Lumut Protection Forest was comparable to that of Meratus and Sungai Wain, indicating
that also in that respect, the Gunung Lumut area forms a typical example for the region, which
according to Slik et al. (2003) harbours the largest tree diversity in Borneo.
Structurally the forests in the Gunung Lumut area are very similar to the forests at the foot of
Gunung Meratus, which in turn differ significantly from the coastal forest near Balikpapan which
has much higher stem densities.
Differences within the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest
Species composition within the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest differs considerably, i.e.
lowland forest (Mului and Base Camp) could be separated from montane (Gunung Lumut) and
limestone (Rabtau Layung) forest. This means that these different locations complement each
other floristically, i.e. each location adds to the diversity of the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest.
The most deviating locations in the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest, both in terms of plant
diversity and structure, are Rantau Layung and Gunung Lumut itself. This is probably related to
soil properties (Rantau Layung) and altitude (Gunung Lumut). This shows that the environmental
heterogeneity of the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest is an important contributor to the floristic
diversity of the area. This effect is even stronger for fern composition and diversity, both of
which were closely linked with altitude (which is probably a proxy for air humidity).
Another finding of this study is that the logged forest (Base Camp) was still very diverse and
floristically not very different from undisturbed forest nearby (Mului), even though compositional
difference between plots in the logged forest was much lower than in undisturbed forest. This
means that although large parts of the Gunung Lumut area have been logged in the past, this has
probably had only limited effect on species diversity and composition, i.e. for conservation these
logged forests are just as valuable as the undisturbed forests in the Gunung Lumut area.
Conclusions
1. Floristically and structurally the Gunung Lumut Protection forest is a typical example of
the forests that can be found on the Meratus Mountain Range.
2. The plant diversity is typical for southeast Borneo, i.e. very high compared to other parts
of the island.
3. The environmental heterogeneity (soils and altitude range) of the Gunung Lumut area
contributes to the floristic and structural diversity of this protection forest.
4. The logged forests within the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest are as diverse as the
undisturbed forests and are also floristically very rich.
Conservation recommendation
The Gunung Lumut area is one of the last remaining large tracts of relatively undisturbed forest in
southeast Borneo, and is very important as a representative sample of the forests in this region,
which was found to belong to the most diverse plant regions in Borneo. When protected
effectively, the Gunung Lumut Protection Forest could, together with the Sungai Wain forest (as
a typical example of lowland coastal forest), conserve much of the plant diversity in this region
for the future.
