Bird Count at Sungai Menyala Forest Reserve, Port Dickson, Negeri Sembilan Vuthy Taing Malaysian Nature Society Negeri Sembilan-Malacca Branch [email protected] Abstract : The quick survey gives an overall assessment of the bird count at Sungai Menyala Forest Reserve and an invaluable insight into its biodiversity as an “island” forest. The survey revealed the presence of 33 species of birds. INTRODUCTION Sungai Menyala Forest reserve is a 1,280 hectares Dipterocarp Lowland Forest. It is surrounded by oil palm plantations, other forms of farming and residential area, making it an “island” forest. The noise pollution comes from an adjacent military firing range and the aeroplanes approaching landing to Kuala Lumpur’s International Airport (KLIA). Malaysia has 822 bird species with 100 families recorded. These include residents, migrants, vagrants and introduced species. In terms of conservation status, Malaysia has 63 bird species in the Threatened category, 109 species Near Threaten and 1 species with Data Deficient. The rest, 649 species, are of Least Concern. The objective of this rapid assessment is to get a snapshot of the bird biodiversity and to see if there are any vulnerable species in a small and isolated forest. 5 4

Mamalia dan Avifauna di Hutan Simpan Sungai Menyala, Port Dickson, Negeri Sembilan Mohammad Shahfiz Azman1, Noor Faradiana Md. Fauzi1, Nur Aina Amira Mahyudin1 dan Mohd. Syaridzwan Baharudin1 1Cawangan Zoologi, Program Biodiversiti Fauna, Bahagian Biodiversiti Hutan, Institut Penyelidikan Perhutanan Malaysia, 52109 Kepong, Selangor E-mel: [email protected] Abstrak : Inventori mamalia dan avifauna telah dijalankan di Hutan Simpan Sungai Menyala, Port Dickson, Negeri Sembilan pada 2-5 Oktober 2022 semasa Ekspedisi Saintifik Kepelbagaian Biologi Hutan. Sehingga kini, maklumat mamalia dan avifauna adalah terhad. Oleh itu, objektif inventori adalah untuk mendokumentasikan maklumat spesies mamalia dan avifauna di hutan simpan ini. Kaedah pemerhatian terus menggunakan binokular dan kamera telah dilaksanakan semasa inventori bagi merekodkan maklumat spesies mamalia dan avifauna. Sejumlah empat spesies mamalia daripada tiga famili dan 30 spesies avifauna daripada 21 famili telah direkodkan. Bagi mamalia, famili Sciuridae merekodkan dua spesies iaitu Tupai Terbang Merah (Petaurista petaurista) dan Tupai Pinang (Callosciurus notatus) manakala, bagi avifauna, famili Columbidae merekodkan empat spesies iaitu Tekukur Leher Berbintik (Streptopelia chinensis), Merbuk (Geopelia striata), Punai Leher Jambu (Treron vernans) dan Punai Besar (Treron capellei). Berdasarkan hasil kajian yang diperolehi, adalah ditunjukkan bahawa Hutan Simpan Sungai Menyala adalah salah satu habitat yang didiami oleh pelbagai spesies fauna termasuk spesies yang dikelaskan sebagai terancam (EN) seperti Lotong Cengkung (Trachypithecus obscurus). Namun, kajian lanjut yang lebih terperinci adalah disarankan agar senarai menyeluruh komposisi spesies mamalia dan avifauna di hutan simpan ini dapat dijana. Maklumat ini penting bagi mengetengahkan kesignifikanan Hutan Simpan Sungai Menyala sebagai salah satu habitat penting mamalia dan avifauna di Negeri Sembilan. 5 6
