Abstract

Abstract The formation of standing water in the rice field ecosystem in the rainy season is estimated to cause differences in the existence of several species of grasshoppers compared to the end of dry season. Research needs to be done on impact of standing water on the existence of several species of grasshoppers (Orthoptera) in the rice field ecosystem. This research was conducted from September to December 2018 by observing several species of grasshoppers in the rice field ecosystem at the end of the dry season and the rainy season. The results of the observations indicate a difference in the presence of several species of grasshoppers at the end of the dry season and the rainy season. This is because in the rainy season formed a standing water forms which causes the sinking of some vegetation to cause vegetation to grow into groups. This condition is thought to cause grasshoppers to adaptation to changes so that there are differences in the presence of several species of grasshoppers at the end of dry season and rainy season.

Highlights

  • Grasshoppers (Orthoptera) are more common in the rice field ecosystem than in plantation ecosystems (Sugiarto, 2018)

  • Observation of the existence of several species of grasshoppers at the end of the dry season found that the existence of Atractomorpha crenulata and Oxya Hyla at the edges to the middle of the rice fields

  • Phlaeoba fumosa and Xenocatantops humilis are located on the upper edge until they pass a little lower edge, but not until the middle of the rice fields

Summary

Introduction

Grasshoppers (Orthoptera) are more common in the rice field ecosystem than in plantation ecosystems (Sugiarto, 2018). The method of this research was carried out by observing several species of grasshoppers, namely Atractomorpha crenulata, Gesonula mundata, Oxya Hyla, Phlaeoba fumosa, and Xenocatantops humilis in the rice field ecosystem.
