| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立彰化師範大學 === 生物學系 === 99 === In this study, ant communities were analyzed among four different habitat types in Hushan Reservoir Conservation and Restoration Area from March 2010 to February 2011. The four habitat types are habitat with neither reducing Ma Bamboo coverage nor planting native saplings (B0T0), habitat with reducing Ma Bamboo coverage and planting native saplings (B-T+), habitat with planting native saplings only (B0T+), and areca plantation with planting native saplings (T+). We collected 45,145 individuals of ant (82 species of 35 genera) with pitfall traps and Winkler bags. Ant species assemblages were difference among different habitat types. However, no significant difference was found between habitat types. In addition, eight environment variables were measured from 21 plots in 7 sites. Principal components analysis (PCA) shows that habitat type B0T+ differs from other types. Redundancy analysis (RDA) shows that 10 cm soil moisture is one of the most important environment variables related to ant species distribution in this area.
