“…Another study also found that Braconidae and Ichneumonidae were the dominant parasitoid Hymenoptera families in vegetable agriculture ecosystems in West Sumatra (Yaherwandi 2012). In addition, Ichneumonidae and Braconidae families also dominated forest areas, including in Mount Halimun National Park (TNGH) (Siregar et al 2016). We found that Scelionidae and Braconidae were parasitoid Hymenoptera families with the highest number of individuals.…”

Abstract. Ikhsan Z, Hidrayani, Yaherwandi, Hamid H. 2020. The diversity and abundance of Hymenoptera insects on tidal swamp rice field in Indragiri Hilir District, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 21: 1020-1026. Hymenoptera is one of the four largest insect orders and it plays a vital role in human life as pollinators, parasitoids, and predators. Hymenoptera parasitoids are particularly important as agents of biological control of pest. The objective of this research was to study the diversity and abundance of Hymenoptera on tidal swamp rice field in Indragiri Hilir District, Riau Province, Indonesia. Samplings were conducted in 3 sub-districts of rice production centers, namely Batang Tuaka, Keritang and Reteh, using four trapping techniques (i.e. insect net, malaise trap, pitfall trap, and yellow pan trap). Shannon diversity index (H '), Krebs evenness index (E), and Jaccard similarity index (Is) were calculated. We found 4,701 individuals consisting of 39 families and 319 species of Hymenoptera at the three studied areas. Tidal swamp rice in Indragiri Hilir District had a high species diversity of Hymenoptera parasitoids and Hymenoptera predators, but a moderate species diversity of Hymenoptera pollinators. Species diversity and evenness of Hymenoptera parasitoids and predators were higher in Keritang than in Batang Tuaka and Reteh. The families of Formicidae, Braconidae, Ichneumonidae, and Scelionidae had the highest number of species, while Formicidae, Scelionidae, Diapriidae, and Braconidae had the highest number of individuals. Based on these findings, the abundance and diversity of Hymenoptera insects in Indragiri Hilir District have the potentials to be developed as biological agents to control pests on tidal swamp rice in this area.

“…Our results are similar to several previous studies. For example, A. dorsata and A. florea had higher values of visitation frequency and rate on various crops (Saeed et al, 2012, Siregar et al, 2016). In another study, Ali et al (2011) observed higher visitation rate of Nomia sp.…”

Indian siris, Albizia lebbeck (L.) Benth. (Fabaceae: Mimosoideae) has significant importance to human beings for its multipurpose use. Insects play a crucial role in the pollination biology of flowering plants. In the current study, we studied the pollination biology of A. lebbeck with special reference to insect floral visitors. The effectiveness of floral visitors was investigated in term of visitation frequency, visitation rate and pollen load during 2012 and 2013. In the second experiment, effect of pollinators on yield of A. lebbeck was studied in open and cage pollination experiments. Floral visitor fauna of A. lebbeck included eight-bees, two wasps, two flies, and two butterflies species. Among them, Apis dorsata, Apis florea, Amegilla cingulata, and Nomia oxybeloides had maximum abundance ranging from 349–492, 339–428, 291–342 and 235–255 numbers of individuals, respectively during two flowering seasons. A. dorsata had the highest visitation frequency (6.44 ± 0.49–8.78 ± 0.48 visits/flower/5min) followed by Amegilla cingulata (6.03 ± 0.43–7.99 ± 0.33 visits/flower/5min) and A. florea (3.61 ± 0.31–4.44 ± 0.18 visits/flower/5min). A. dorsata, N. oxybeloides, and Amegilla cingulata had the highest visitation rates (18.904 ± 1.53–11.43 ± 1.17 flower visited/min) and pollen load (15333 ± 336.22–19243 ± 648.45 pollen grains). The open pollinated flowers had significantly higher capsule weight (4.97 ± 0.21 g), seed weight (1.04 ± 0.05 g), seed numbers per pod (9.80 ± 0.34) and seed germination percentage (84.0 ± 1.78%) as compared to caged flowers. The results suggested bees especially A. dorsata, N. oxybeloides and Amegilla cingulata could be effective pollinators of A. lebbeck.

“…For example, in birds, early morning is considered to be one of the most active feeding time periods because insects become more active when the environment is warmed up by the sun. When insect activity increases (Siregar et al, 2016), it becomes easier for birds that rely on insect food to search and capture prey more successfully. Due to the warmth experienced in the study area in the morning when the sun rises, the dominance of feeding activities in the morning as compared to other activities for the Red-capped Lark may hence be attributed to the need to take advantage of high insect activity to feed.…”

Passerines are unusually rich and successful avian species. As a result, the diverse life history traits of tropical passerines that have not been intensively studied offer researchers unique opportunities to fill in existing knowledge gaps on their ecology as well as test the evolutionary and ecological theory. This study assessed the feeding behaviour of the all year round breeding tropical Red-capped Lark in relation to its diurnal time activity. Observations on adult birds were undertaken between March-August 2016 at their natural open grassland habitat (Naivasha, Kenya) during breeding and non-breeding seasons. We found no significant difference in mean feeding rates and search rate between seasons. However, time-of-day influenced feeding activities.When breeding, mean feeding rates were significantly higher for morning than mid-morning. The mean search rates were significantly higher for evening than for morning and mid-morning. During non-breeding season, mean feeding rates were significantly higher for morning than mid-morning but no significance difference in mean search rates for the time periods. This study provides key knowledge on Red-capped Lark's feeding behaviour that in combination with future studies on other aspects of the behaviour can contribute to improving the management of threatened habitats of grassland birds.
