| Research Abstract |
Present study aims to analyze ant communities of the agriculture and forest ecosystems in terms of the utilization of ants as bioindicators. Taxonomic information of ants in East Asia was reviewed including descriptions of new species and revising synonyms. Based on the qualitative and quantitave samplings in Japan, Vietnam and Thailand, species richness, species compositions, and the abundance were compared among the study sites. The result of detrended correspondence analysis (DCA) showed an ordination of ant communities and that of the indicator species analysis extracted 2 to 9 species representing each of ecosystems.
