Abstract

This study aims to estimate population and describe the characteristics of the Rhacophorus reinwardtii habitat in the secondary forest of Ranca Upas. The Capture-Mark-Release-Recapture method was used in each region to collect population data. Rhacophorus reinwardtii habitat is rivers and puddles with a height of 1630-1680 m asl, the pH of the water was neutral and acid, the average speed of the river was 0 m/s and 0.04 m/s, water substrate is sand and mud, with an average of average temperature of 16.7ºC and 17ºC, average water temperature of 14.7ºC, average humidity of 94%. The type of plant that was often the habitat of Rhacophorus reinwardtii was Brugmansia sp. and Cyathea sp. The conclusion of this study was that the distribution of Rhacophorus reinwardtii populations in the heterogeneous forest area of Kampung Cai Ranca Upas tends to cluster.
