Abstract: Tropical Rain Forest located in East Kalimantan has a high level of biodiversity, with a high level of biodiversity in east kalimantan then it needs a method to classify the existing plants there. In the research, the researchers tried to classify 5 plants found in tropical rainforests, namely Shorea Balangeran, Dryobalanopsbeccarii Dyer, Eusideroxylonzwageri, Duriokutejensis, Cerberamang has. Classification is done by using backpropagation neural network algorithm combined with image processing, where the image used is the image of plant leaf. The result of this research is the classification of 5 species of this plant with precision value above 90% in order to become a supporter of botanical decision in determining the type of plant and become alternative reference to classify plants in tropical rain forest area.
