Study of Bird Kinship with Taxonometric Metode in Raden Soerjo Grand Forest Park

Abstract

Raden Soerjo Grand Forest Park has an area of 27,868 hectares which covers several areas, namely Mojokerto, Pasuruan, Malang, Jombang and Kediri districts. The existence of bird species in Raden Soerjo Botanical Forest Park has not been widely identified, especially in the Via Onto Boego hiking trail. The purpose of this study was to analyze the kinship of birds found in Raden Soerjo Botanical Forest Park using taxonometric methods. This research was conducted by analyzing phenetic or morphological characters, determining similarity values and analyzing the results of bird kinship research. The results of research in Raden Soerjo Botanical Forest Park showed 54 bird species. The dendrogram formed consists of 13 kinship clusters based on the closest to the farthest morphology. The highest similarity value in birds is found in Enicurus leschennaultia and Enicurus velatus and with a value of 76%. While the lowest similarity value is found in Dendrocopos analis with Gallus varius with a similarity value of 5%.
