摘要：The expansion of oil palm plantation has been claimed as a
major driver of biodiversity loss in the tropics, including birds. To date,
only a few studies have been conducted to document the variation of bird
diversity in different land cover within oil palm plantation. Therefore, it is
necessary to conduct the research to investigate the variation of bird
diversity. The objective of this study to identify the diversity of bird in
different land cover within oil palm plantation. The observation of bird
diversity was done in young stand of oil palm, old stand of oil palm,
smallholder oil palm and in secondary forest as high stock carbon as
natural reference before converting in to oil palm. The survey was done in
August 2017 in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. Data of bird species were
recorded by direct observation using transect method. To calculate the
diversity value of birds at different land cover, we used Margalef Index
(Dmg) and Comunity similarity (IS). The result showed that the number of
species and species diversity was highest at high carbon stock area which
the number of species was 25 species and Margalef Index was 5.99. The
young stand of oil palm have the highest evenness index (0.93), while the
highest similarity index was observed in old stand of oil palm and in
smallholder oil palm. Our study concludes that the existence of high
carbon stock areas within oil palm plantation had a positive influence in
increasing bird diversity. From a conservation perspective, retaining of
natural habitat such as high carbon stock within oil palm plantation is one
strategy to conserve biodiversity.
