| Summary: | <p>Rafflesia is a largest flower in its species in the world. The main issues which threatened this species were cause by; the destruction of the<br />rainforest as its natural fragmentation habitat and for its land conversion moreover the lack of conservation effort and understanding from the<br />stakeholder. This plant belongs to endemic and protect species in Indonesia. This research purpose is to analyze Rafflesia patma population and<br />ecology at Leuweung Cipeucang Geopark Ciletuh Sukabumi. Purposive sampling was used to collect data in this research by using 1.000 meter plotplot<br />which involve Rafflesia patma population and ecological data. The population data covering size, shape, quantity and inflorescence phase of<br />Rafflesia patma while the ecological data covering the plant vegetation and physical habitat. 21 individual Rafflesia patma were found at Leweung<br />Cipeucang, and at the high of 196-217 m dpl Tetrastigma papilosum were located. Rafflesia patma population consists of 13% blooming flower, 9%<br />inanimate after blooming, 26% living knop, 52% dead knop. The Highest significant index value (INP) occur in seeding level and stake on Streblus<br />ilicifolius species from Moraceae Family with 58,5% INP value at seeding level, 28% at stake level, at the tree vegetation level occur at Ficus<br />tinctoria species from Moracea family with 37,45% INP value. The highest diversity index occurs on seeding level vegetation is at 9,54.<br />Keyword: Ciletuh Cipeucang, ekologi, populasi, Rafflesia</p> |
