Abstract
An experiment was carried out to determine species diversity in three different land use types: urban area, abandoned area and mango orchard at Kasetsart University, Kamphaeng Saen Campus from January to March 2015. Ants were collected using tuna and honey as bait in pitfall traps. The species richness of ants was 28 identified species, belonging to 20 genera in four subfamilies: Dolichoderinae (11%), Formicinae (29%), Myrmicinae (46%), and Ponerinae (14%). Diacamma rugosum Le Guillou (Ponerinae), Monomorium pharaonis Linnaeus (Myrmicinae) and Paratrechina longicornis Latreille (Formicinae) were generalist species found in all three land use types. Three endemic species: Polyrhachis laevissima F. Smith (Formicinae) and Pheidole sp.2 (Myrmicinae) were found in the abandoned area, Meranoplus bicolor Guérin-Méneville (Myrmicinae) was found in urban area. The diversity as given by the Shannon index, Pielou’s evenness and analysis of similarities (ANOSIM) were lowest in the urban area among the three land use types. The study showed that both ant species diversity and community composition were distinctly varied relative to the different land use types.
