| Biodiversity Study on Segara Anakan Lagoon | |
| 2019 Conference Proceeding | |
Segara Anakan is the only estuary on the southern coast and the widest mangrove ecosystem in Java Island. However, it is currently not included in the list of government protected conservation area. This study aims to identify the biodiversity in Segara Anakan conservation area. The results of this identification show the types of flora, fauna and their conservation status in a biodiversity profile. The results of this study showed that Segara Anakan conservation area is 16,253.2 ha with mangrove ecosystem as it main ecosystem. The total area of mangrove is 3,980 ha. There are 60 species of mangrove plants, one of them has a "near threatened" status according to the IUCN Red List (i.e. Ceriops decandra). According to the IUCN Red List, two birds are on "vulnerable" and one mammal has a "near threatened" conservation status. From the Shannon-Wiener biodiversity index calculation, the biodiversity level of the Segara Anakan Lagoon is categorized as a medium with the value 1.76 - 2.80. The Segara Anakan community also uses mangroves for processed food and batik colouring which can generate group turnover of around 2 to 3 million rupiahs per month. |
