Abstract
This study explores the diversity, relative abundance, evenness, and richness of pollinators in the Rajshahi University Campus, in Bangladesh. A total of 625 individuals belonging to both invertebrates and vertebrates were recorded. Among the invertebrates, 44 insect species in five orders such as Hymenoptera, Diptera, Hemiptera, Coleoptera, and Lepidoptera were collected. The results revealed that the Lepidoptera and Hymenoptera were more abundant. Around 17 vertebrates in four orders, including Aves and Mammalia were also recorded. The diversity indices were: H'=3.82, with the Evenness (E=0.93), and Margalef’s Richness Index (d=9.32). Also 59 pollinator-visiting plants were enlisted.
