Primata merupakan salah satu ordo dari kelas mammalia yang memiliki lebih dari 350 spesies di dunia. kehadiran primata semakin berkurang akibat kondisi habitat yang mengalami penyusutan di kawasan aslinya. keberadaan primata sangat penting bagi keseimbangan ekosistem. taman hutan raya pocut meurah intan (tahura pmi) provinsi aceh adalah salah satu habitat yang didiami oleh primata, perlu dilakukan kajian melalui penelitian yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui struktur populasi, diversitas dan kepadatan populasi primata. penelitian ini dilakukan pada bulan september 2018 hingga nopember 2019 di kawasan tahura pmi. metode penelitian dilakukan secara survei dengan lima titik stasiun pengamatan. hasil penelitian diketahui terdapat lima spesies dari ordo primata yaitu simphalangus syndactylus (siamang) dengan kepadatan populasi 0,011 indiv/km2, trachypithecus cristatus (lutung) 0,051 indiv/km2, presbytis thomasi (kedih) 0,101 indiv/km2, macaca fascicularis (monyet ekor panjang) 0,146 indiv/km2, dan macaca nemestrina (beruk) 0,043 indiv/km2. indeks diversitas diketahui Ĥ = 1.37. kesimpulan diperoleh adalah kepadatan populasi berkiran antara 0,011 indiv/km2 sampai 0,146 indiv/km2 dengan tingkat keanekaragaman sedang. kata kunci : populasi, diversitas, kepadatan, primata, pocut meurah intan.

Primates are one of the orders of Class Mammalia which has more than 350 species in the world. The presence of primates is diminishing due to the habitat conditions that are experiencing shrinkage from the original area. The existence of primates is very important for the balance of ecosystems. Pocut Meurah Intan Forest Park in Aceh Province is one of the habitats inhabited by primates need to be studied trough research that aims to determine the population structure, diversity, and density of primates population. This research was conducted in September 2018 until November 2019 in Forest Park. The research method was conducted by survey with five observation station points. The results of the study revealed that there are five species from the Primate Order namely Simphalangus syndactylus (Siamang) with a population density of 0,011 indiv/km2, Trachypithecus cristatus (Silvery Lutung) 0,051 indiv/km2, Presbytis thomasi (Thomas’s Langur) 0,101 indiv/km2, Macaca fascicularis (Long-tailed Macaque) 0,146 indiv/km2 and Macaca nemestrina (Pig-tailed Macaque) 0,043 indiv/km2. Diversity index known Ĥ = 1,37. The conclusion was that population density ranged from 0,011 indiv/km2 to 0,146 indiv/km2 with a medium level of diversity.
