ABSTRAK


Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengamati tingkat keragaman dan kelimpahan  beberapa predator  yang tergolong dalam phylum Arthropoda  pada ekositem tanaman tembakau Virginia di Lombok Tengah. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode survey  dan pengambilan sampel predator menggunakan perangkap.  Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa arthropoda predator pada ekositem tanaman tembakau Virginia di Lombok Tengah. yang umum ditemukan adalah dari kelas Insekta (7 familia )  dan Arachnida (4 familia)  dengan populasi 457 ekor. Secara keseluruhan kelimpahan tertinggi pada familia Formicidae sebanyak 134 ekor dengan kelimpahan 29,32 %.  Sedangkan Nilai  Keragaman (H’) familia Predator Arthropoda penghuni ekosistem tanaman embakau Virginia di Lombok Tengah termasuk dalam kategori rendah  yaitu 0,53. Dari hasil penelitian tersebut maka kegiatan konservasi agen hayati pada habitat tersebut sangat penting untuk dilaksanakan, terutama agen hayati yang cukup potensial seperti famila pada ordo Coleoptera dan ordo Araneae.


ABSTRACT


The study of predatory arthropods on ecosystem of Virgina Tobacco Plant in Central Lombok with objectives to observe the diversity and abundance of predatory arthropods on the ecosystem of Virgina tobacco plant . The survey method had used in this srtudy and trapping had conducted  for sample collection. The result of this study showed that predatory arthropods were dominated by  insects with the total of 7 families  and Arachnida with 4  families. Both two families had  the total population about 457. The data indicated that the most abundant predators were  Formicidae that was 29.32%,  with the total population was about 134 . In addition, the arthropod predators in this ecosystem of Virginia tobacco were low level of diversity with diversity value was 0.53.  In order to improve the potential of biological agents, it is necessary to conserve the potensial biological agents such as the families from Coleopteran and Araneae order.
