KEANEKARAGAMAN HAMA DI PERSAWAHAN DESA MARGASANA KECAMATAN KRAMAT WATU KABUPATEN SERANG
Abstract
Rice field ecosystems serve as habitats for various insect species that act as pests and natural enemies. This study aimed to determine the diversity of pest insects in rice fields located in Margasana Village, Kramatwatu District, Serang Regency, Banten. Data were collected on April 23 and 25, 2026, through field observations using an insect net during the morning and afternoon. A total of 83 insect individuals were recorded, belonging to the orders Orthoptera, Hemiptera, Coleoptera, and Lepidoptera. The most dominant species were Valanga nigricornis (15 individuals) and Tagasta marginella (14 individuals). Ecological analysis showed a Shannon-Wiener diversity index (H’) of 2.283 (moderate category), a Simpson dominance index of 0.118 (low category), an evenness index of 0.919 (high category), and a Margalef richness index of 2.489 (moderate category). These results indicate that the rice field ecosystem in Margasana Village is relatively stable and capable of supporting a diverse pest insect community. Therefore, environmentally friendly pest management practices are needed to maintain ecosystem balance and sustain rice productivity.
