Abstract
Mammal species composition and richness were quantified in lowland/hill dipterocarp forest and oil palm plantation. The objective of this research was to compare species richness, composition and determine key habitat factors that influence site occupancy of mammal species. Forty three points of camera traps were installed in lowland/hill dipterocarp forest and oil palm plantation. A total of 15 species were found in both landscape, 13 species of them were found in forest and 7 of them were found in oil palm plantation. There was a significant difference in species composition and richness between lowland/hill dipterocarp forest and oil palm plantation. Pig-tailed macaque were the most dominant mammal species in forest, while Long-tailed macaque were the most dominant mammal species in oil palm plantation. Tree height and number of trees were the key habitat factors that influence the number of mammal image captured. Further research is required to understand more about the factors of habitat quality that influence the presence of mammal species in both landscape.
