Abstract

DEWI, A. P., ARIYANTI N. S. & WALUJO, E. B. 2016. Diversity of plants used for plaited crafts by the Dayak Iban-Désa in Kabupaten Sintang, Kalimantan Barat. Reinwardtia 15(2): 67 – 79. — Many plants are used for making plaited crafts such as basketry and woven mats by the Dayak Iban-Désa, a sub-tribe of the Dayak in Kalimantan Barat, Indonesia. The Dayak Iban-Désa gather the craft materials mostly from the plants in the forest. However, the habitats of these plants are being threatened by deforestation. The diversity of plants used for crafts is here documented. This study recorded the scientific names of plant species used for the craft plaiting, and observed abundance of plants used for craft. Information about the plants used were gathered using non-structural interview and focus group discussion (FGD) with the informants and participants. The abundance of plaited plants was observed in 46 plots of 10 × 10 m2 plots by participative ecological method. Nineteen plants species were used as plaited material, belonging to four families: Arecaceae, Poaceae, Pandanaceae and Zingiberaceae. Two species of rattan (Calamus sp. and Plectocomiopsis wrayi Becc.) have the highest Index Cultural Significance (ICS) value. Those species were considered as the most valuable plant materials because of the quality of fiber, intensity on harvesting, and the resulting quality of plaited craft products. However, the demand for high quality products is not always supported by the availability of plant materials in the forest. Therefore, the cultural significance of plants (the ICS values) and their availability should be considered when determining the conservation strategy for each of these species.

Abstract

Microchirita caerulea (R. Br) Yin Z.Wang merupakan salah satu anggota suku Gesneriaceae endemik Jawa dan Kepulauan Sunda Kecil. Marga Microchirita yang merupakan pemisahan seksi dari marga Henckelia masih memiliki keterbatasan informasi dalam kajian anatomi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menambah informasi kajian anatomi marga Microchirita khususnya M. caerulea dari Madura. Pengamatan dilakukan melalui pembuatan preparat paradermal dan sayatan transversal dari helaian daun, tangkai daun dan batang. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan ciri tipe stomata diasitik dan koperisitik dengan komponen jaringan mesofil daun berupa palisade. Epidermis abaksial ibu tulang daun, kolenkim, dan parenkim tangkai daun berukuran sangat besar. Berkas pembuluh terdiri dari xilem dan floem pada ibu tulang daun dan tangkai daun serta adanya serat floem pada batang. Tidak ditemukannya sklerenkim dan saluran sekretori pada tangkai daun. Susunan berkas pembuluh pada ibu tulang daun diduga merupakan variasi susunan baru pada suku Gesneriaceae. Susunan berkas pembuluh pada tangkai daun dan batang menyerupai beberapa jenis dari marga Henckelia. Kata kunci: anatomi, Microchirita caerulea, Jawa, Madura, Gesneriaceae
