“…The Myrmicinae subfamily dominates over the other subfamilies in paranet and oilpalm site because this subfamily is known as tramp type that have a high foraging ability and have a character to make nests in disturbed area (Rosnadi et al, 2019). Septriani et al (2015) stated that an area can be said to have been invaded if Myrmicinae subfamily ant is found in that area. According to Ikbal et al (2014) and Toana et al (2014) the dominant macrofauna in the cocoa plantation is invasive macrofauna such as Pheidole rugosula and Monomorium sydneyense, which belongs to the Myrmicinae subfamily.…”

Ants are soil macrofauna that plays an essential role in preventing pods of cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) from Helopeltis antonii and Conopomorpha cramerella attack. However, the method of those pests control primarily using pesticides and that will disturbed ant's life. This research aims to determine the abundance and diversity of ants in cocoa plantations with different shade and to determine the correlation between ant abundance and intensity of pest attack from Helopeltis antonii and Conopomorpha cramerella. Ants sample was carried out using pitfall traps and Berlese funnels based on purposive sampling method. The results showed that five subfamilies were found in cocoa plantations with different shade. Subfamily Myrmicinae was the dominant group in all observation sites. The ant abundance has a strong correlation with intensity of pest attack. This was influenced by a role of the ant as natural enemies from Helopeltis antonii and Conopomorpha cramerella.

“…Myrmicinae was subfamily with the largest number of species collected (14 species, 52% of the total number of species), followed by Formicinae (six species, 22%), Dolichoderinae (three species, 11%) and Ponerinae (three species, 11%) while Dorylinae only represented by one species, Dorylus laevigatus that was collected at 1,500 m. The subfamily Myrmicinae is known as the taxon with numerous members with vast distribution ranges (Shattuck, 1999;Bolton, 2016;Antwiki, 2017). On the present knowledge, this subfamily has been massively recorded (individual or species number) in the Himalayas (Bharti et al, 2013), Bogor Botanical Gardens in Bogor, Java (Herwina and Nakamura, 2007), South Maninjau Nature Reserve, West Sumatra (Septriani et al, 2016). Due to its subterranean habit that forages underground (Weissflog et al, 2000), Dorylinae was collected only by leaf lifter sifting and soil core method within the Quadra Protocol.…”

The present study adds a novel perspective on Sumatran ant fauna by providing the information on its diversity across an altitudinal gradient in Mount Talang, a mountain in West Sumatra Province. A standardized sampling method of Quadra Protocol was applied at three altitudes (1,500, 2,000 and 2,500 m elevation). A total of 408 ant individuals collected in the study were identified to belong to 27 species in 19 genera of nine tribes and five subfamilies. Myrmicinae was the subfamily with the largest number of species collected (14 species), followed by Formicinae (six species), Dolichoderinae, and Ponerinae (three species in each), and a single species of an army ant from subfamily Dorylinae. The number of ant species decreases with altitude inclination; 19 species were recorded at 1,500 m elevation, ten at 2,000 m, and only three at 2,500 m.

“…In addition, there are also reptiles known to be scavengers or necrophagous (Koch and Arida, 2017;Uyeda et al, 2013). The benefits of reptiles to humans, namely some reptiles can be used as pets, ingredients in traditional medicine, food ingredients, medical experiments, and craft materials (Hamdani et al, 2013). Some reptiles can also be used as objects of ecotourism (Subeno, 2018).…”

Rawa Mekar Jaya mangrove ecotourism is the last mangrove forest on the east coast of Sumatra Island. This mangrove forest is a home for reptiles. The reptilian fauna of the Mekar Jaya mangrove has the potential to become an ecotourism object. This study aims to determine the diversity, evenness, abundance, and status of reptile species in the Mekar Jaya mangrove ecotourism. Four 3 x 400 m transects were conducted in two habitat types: aquatic (10 m of bank) and terrestrial (30 m of bank). Observations were made in the morning and evening at low tide and repeated five times at three-day intervals. Direct collection of reptile data using a visual survey (VES) and passive sampling (glue trap). The researchers managed to capture 52 individuals, which were reptiles, consisting of 4 species (Draco sumatranus, Hemidactylus platyurus, Mabuya multifasciata, and Varanus savator) found directly in the field. The results of the interviews with the managers indicate that there are 2 species of crocodiles: Crocodylus porosus and Tomistoma schlegelii. Shannon-Wiener diversity index value was medium (H'=1.02). Evenness index was labile (0.57). The highest species abundance was M. multifasciata (0.65), while the lowest abundance was H. platyurus (0.12). All reptile species found were not protected. V. salvator is classified as a low-risk species (LC/Minor Concern) and is listed in Appendix II of CITES. Two crocodile species reported by the community are protected. T. schlegelii is vulnerable and listed in Appendix I of CITES. C. porosus is low-risk and listed in CITES Appendix II.
