Abstract


ABSTRACT

Insects associated with tomato plants are both pests and beneficial insects such as predators,
parasitoids, and some are useful as flower pollinators and destroyers of organic matter. The level of
stability of an agricultural ecosystem is determined by the structure of the trophic network and the
interactions between community components including herbivores (pests), carnivores, namely
predators and parasites. This study aims to inventory the insects associated with tomato plants in
Kamasi Village, Tomohon City. This research was conducted using two traps, namely the Pitfall Trap,
the Yellow Sticky Trap which was installed every three days in one month of observation, and direct
capture using the Insect Net. Pitfall traps are placed at 10 different points (using the zig-zag method)
in 1 planting area. While the Yellow sticky trap is placed at 3 points of the planting area, namely the
left, right and center, the insects caught are labeled. Then it was taken to the laboratory of the
Department of Pests and Plant Diseases, University of Sam Ratulangi Manado to be observed. The
results of the study found that the insects associated with tomato plants in Kamasi Village, Tomohon
City for Insect Nets were found to have a total of 13 types of insects, namely the Order Orthoptera,
Family Acrididae, Order Coleoptera, Family Scarabaeidae, Staphylinidae, Chrysomelidae,
Coccinellidae and Chantaridae, Order Diptera, Family Syrphidae. , Dolichopodidae and Asilidae,
Order Hymenoptera Family Halictidae, Order Hemiptera Families Alydidae and Miridae, Order
Lepidoptera Family Noctuidae. The Pitfall Trap was found to have 12 types of insects, namely the
Order Orthoptera, Family Gryllidae, Order Coleoptera, Family Scarabaeidae, Staphylinidae,
Scolytidae and Ptinidae, Order Dermaptera, Family Forficulidae, Order Diptera, Family Drosophilidae,
Order Hymenoptera, Family Formicidae, Order Hemiptera, Familiaridae, Colillomidae. Isotomidae and
Sminthuridae. The Yellow Sticky Trap was found to have 1 type of insect, namely the Order Diptera,
Family Tephritidae. From the results of the study, it can be concluded that the insects associated with
the Tomato plant are 8 Orders, 24 Families consisting of insect pests, 11 Families from 5 Orders,
insects as natural enemies (predators) 9 Families from 4 Orders, pollinator insects 1 Family from 1
Order and decomposer insects of 3 Families of 1 Order.
