Abstract

This research was conducted on an Arabica coffee plantation that was organically managed in Atang Jungket Village, Aceh Tengah District, Aceh Province. Sampling using a purposive sampling method with the 5-hectare land area at altitude 1400 m above sea level. The results showed that arthropods found in arabica coffee plantations consist of 2 classes, 12 orders, and 72 families. The order of Hymenoptera was the dominant order (39.72%), followed by Diptera (34.72%), Araneae (9.46%), Coleoptera (8.06%) and other orders (Hemiptera, Blatodea, Homoptera, Lepidoptera, Mantodea, Mecoptera, Orthoptera and Psocoptera) that is 8.05%. The high abundance of arthropods in an agro-ecosystem is related to the stability of the environment, where the food chain is still well-established.
