Abstract

Amphibians play a vital role as bio indicators of environmental health. This study aims to calculate the diversity of species, the abundance and the evenness of amphibians in the area of Cimisblung Resort Cisarua, Gunung Gede Pangrango National Park (TNGGP). Visual Encounter Surveys method was used to determine the species richness of the area, to compile a species list and to estimate the relative abundance of species, by observing the trunks of bush trees in the Cimisblung River flow. Data analysis used Species Diversity Index, Species Evenness Index, Species Abundance Index and Dominance Index. The results showed that the frogs obtained in the Cimisblung area were 151 individuals, 13 species from 5 families, the diversity index (Shannon-Wiener) showed that in the Cimisblung River H’ = 1.780 the evenness index for species E = 0.694 and the dominance index D = 0.286. Amphibian diversity (Order Anura) in the Cimisblung region is moderate.
