Abstract

The community nearby palm oil plantations have benefited from the indigenous mushroom growing on decomposed oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB). Some mushrooms are edible, but others are known as non-edible due to their toxicity. There is limited scientific information about the biodiversity of indigenous mushrooms growing on the decomposed OPEFB. Therefore, an explorative study was conducted in March 2021 to determine the level of the indigenous mushrooms during the one to six months of decompose period of the OPEFB at a palm oil plantation in Paser Regency, Indonesia. Purposive plot sampling on decomposed OPEFB pile was carried out to collect the mushrooms. A deep interview questioner was used to find out the utilization of the mushrooms using census method on respondents living nearby the plantation area. The diversity characteristics of the mushrooms growing on OPEFB were determined by morphological identification based on the reference of Watling (2017) “Identification of the Larger Fungi” and using mushrooms identification application of “mushroom identificator” for Android. This research identifies five types of indigenous mushrooms growing on OPEFB: Auricularia polytricha, Volvariella volvaceae, and Pleurotus ostreatus, which are edible mushrooms. At the same time, due to their toxicity, Collytoybe decembris and Coprinus comatus belong to non-edible mushrooms. The biodiversity characteristics of indigenous mushrooms growing on OPEFB are low for diversity index (0.460), dominance index (0.428), and wealth index/species richness (0.517), while the evenness index is classified as moderate (0.660). These results show that decomposed OPEFB has bioeconomic potential due to the various indigenous mushrooms, which then be developed as functional food sources or medicinal plants.
