Abstract
The success of post-mining ecosystem reclamation is determined by a successful succession process. An Understorey is a group of vegetation that grows in the early stages of succession. This study aims to determine the structure and similarity of communities in various types of ecosystems in the mining area of PT. Indocement Tunggal Prakarsa Tbk. Palimanan Unit. The data collection method used line transect with a size of 1 m x 1 m at 7 (seven) locations, namely AKGB, TDP, TLP, AP, ASB, SD, APS. The number of plots is 140 plots. Data collection was carried out in the rainy and dry season. Found as many as 181 species of Understorey. Dominant and index H’ species Commelina benghalensis in Rainy season and Cynodon dactyl on dry season. The similarity of Understorey communities between observation locations in the rainy and dry seasons varies. In the observation of the rainy season, the observation location with the highest community similarity was between AP and SD (48.13%). The lowest community similarity in the rainy season was found between AKGB and APS locations (1.95%). In the dry season observation, the location with the highest similarity was between TLP and AP (74.18%), and the location with the lowest similarity was TDP and TLP (0.18%).
