Abstract :
Species diversity is an attribute that can describe the forest communities about forest health level in an area. Protected Forest Areas Kajundara is one area that works for the protection of natural resources and soil and water conservation functions. The existence of this region are not free from various natural and anthropogenic pressures. One of the evidence or facts anthropogenic pressures were noted in this area are felling trees, and livestock aktiviatas, anthropogenic pressures have a direct or indirect impact on the conservation and sustainability of the carrying capacity of the region. One of the parameters that can be measured to determine the level of forest health is Kajundara Protected species diversity. This study was conducted to determine the level of plant diversity under the stands Eucalyptus urophylla Protection Forest Kajundara Ende-Flores. The method used in this research is the method quadrant with a rectangular shape is generated based on the species-area curve. The number of sampling plots 30 quadrants based on a consideration of the smallest sample quantities applicable for parametric statistical parametric and for comparison purposes with the same number of samples. The qualitative data in this study is the identification of plant species under and quantitative data in this study the number of individuals and number of species used for the calculation of the number of individuals and diversity index calculations. Categorization index to determine the level of health of the forest can be seen from the calculation Shannon-Wiener diversity index and Simpson. The results of this study indicate that the determination of species richness plants down in the protected areas Kajundara Ende, there are 28 species of lower plants with the number of individuals in 1383 consisting of 21 families. The result of the calculation of index diversity Shannon included in the medium category and Simpson included in the low category, which is where the diversity index Shannon 1,673 and Simpson is 4, 527, which, if taken into consideration by category diversity index of plant communities in protected forest areas Kajundara relatively low, when compared with between two indices of Shannon and Simpson both indices seem to show results conflict sfor Shanon index is more sensitive to the distribution while Simpson index is more sensitive to the predominant type.
