    Tarsius bancanus borneanus (kera hantu) pertama kali dicam oleh Elliot pada
    tahun 1990 merupakan spesies endemik yang boleh ditemui di kepulauan Borneo yang
    terdiri dari Sabah dan Sarawak (Malaysia), Brunei Darussalam dan Kalimantan, Indonesia.
    Sub-spesies ini telah disenaraikan sebagai haiwan yang terlindung sepenuhnya di bawah
    Ordinan Perlindungan Hidupan Liar Sarawak (1998) dan disenaraikan sebagai spesies
    yang terdedah kepada kepupusan oleh IUCN. Kajian ini telah dijalankan di Universiti Putra
    Malaysia Kampus Bintulu Sarawak (UPMKB), dari Oktober 2014 hingga Mac 2015. Menerusi
    persampelan tangkap-lepas yang meliputi kawasan seluas 37 ha hutan sekunder dan 7.13
    ha hutan yang dipulihara, sebanyak 16 ekor kera hantu telah ditangkap menggunakan jaring
    kabut manakala seekor kera hantu telah berjaya ditangkap semula. Kepadatan populasi
    kera hantu yang ditangkap menggunakan jaring kabut di dalam hutan sekunder adalah
    38 individu/km² manakala 28 individu/km² dicatatkan bagi hutan yang dipulihara. Dengan
    menggunakan kaedah penangkapan per satu unit usaha (net-jam), masa purata bagi
    seekor kera hantu ditangkap di dalam hutan sekunder adalah 26.6 jam/haiwan dan 30 jam/
    haiwan di dalam hutan yang dipulihara. Keputusan membuktikan data mengenai kehadiran
    kera hantu di dalam kedua-dua hutan sekunder dan hutan yang dipulihara terutamanya di
    kampus UPMKB sekaligus menonjolkan nilai pemuliharaan kawasan hutan tersebut.

    Tarsius bancanus borneanus was first reported by Elliot in 1990 which an endemic species that can be found on the Island of Borneo consisting of Sabah and Sarawak of Malaysia, Brunei Darussalam and Kalimantan, Indonesia. This sub-species has been listed as a totally protected animal under the Sarawak Wild Life Protection Ordinance (1998) and vulnerable by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). The present study was conducted at Universiti Putra Malaysia Bintulu Campus (UPMKB), Sarawak from October 2014 till March 2015. Through mark and recapture sampling covering an area of 37 ha of secondary forest patches and 7.13 ha of rehabilitated forest, a total of 16 tarsiers were captured using mist nets while one tarsier was recapture. The population density was 38 individuals/km2 was captured using mist nets in the secondary forest while 28 individuals/km2 was recorded for the rehabilitated forest. Using the catch per unit effort (net hour) method, the average time for capturing tarsiers in the secondary forest patches was 26.6 net hour per animal and 30.0 net hour per animal in the rehabilitated forest. The presented results provides information on the presence of tarsiers in both the secondary and rehabilitated forests of UPMKB, Sarawak, Malaysia which underlines the conservation value of these forested areas.
