Abstract

Wana Wisata Rowo Bayu berada di kawasan hutan Petak 8, Forest Resort Songgon, Hutan Rogojampi, Kecamatan Songgon, Kabupaten Banyuwangi. Rowo Bayu berada pada ketinggian 630 meter diatas permukaan laut dan memiliki 3 sumber air dan rowo, sehingga menjadikan wilayah tersebut memiliki kelembaban udara yang tinggi.Kondisi tersebut memungkinkan untuk beberapa jenis hewan dapat hidup, terutama kelompok herpetofauna. Sampai saat ini, belum banyak penelitian tentang herpetofauna di kawasan tersebut.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan persepsi masyarakat terhadap konservasi herpetofauna, mendeskripsikan diversitas, memetakan persebaran dan deskripsi habitat, serta menentukan karakteristik herpetofauna diurnal di Wana Wisata Rowo Bayu. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini meliputi wawancara semi terstruktur, morfometri,Visual Encounter Survey (VES), dan fences trap.Berdasarkan hasil penelitian didapatkan 4 titik lokasi penting ditemukannya berudu yaitu Rowo Bayu, Sumber Kamulyan, Sumber Dewi Gangga, dan Sumber Kaputren,  serta 1 titik yang merupakan mikrohabitat Microhyla. Spesies yang didapatkan dari fences trap adalah Huia masonii(Boulenger, 1884). Famili yang didapatkan darimetode VES yaitu 3 famili dari kelas anura yaitu Microhylidae, Ranidae, dan Dicroglossidaedan 4 famili dari kelas reptil yaituScincidae, Agamidae, Colubridae, dan Natricidae. Kawasan Wana Wisata Rowo Bayu didominasi oleh berudu dari genus Microhyla. Hasil analisis Principal Component Analysis (PCA) menunjukkan ciri karakteristik Eutropismultifasciata adalah Snout Vent Length (SVL), ciri karakteristik Hylarana rufipes adalah Hind Limb Length (HLL), tetapi ciri karakteristik Microhyla achatina tidak diketahui karena ukuran tubuh sangat kecil. Berdasarkan hasil wawancara, seluruh responden mendukung upaya konservasi dengan cara tidak merusak atau mengganggu habitat herpetofauna.
