The method used at all the three sites was baited-pitfall traps. The ant samples were collected from September 2013 to November 2013 and preserved using 80% ethanol. Four ants subfamilies were found at site A and Site B which are Dolichoderinae, Formicinae, Myrmicinae and Ponerinae. Meanwhile, only three subfamilies found in Site C which are Dolichoderinae, Myrmicinae and Ponerinae. There were 9963 individuals recorded at Site A, 50255 individuals recorded at Site B and 20917 individuals recorded at Site C. Formicinae is found to be the majority subfamily in Site A, whereas Myrmicinae contributes the largest percentage of existence in Site B and C. By using Shannon-Wiener Diversity Index, Site B is shown to the most diverse (H’ = 1.04). Site A possessed the highest subfamily richness (R = 0.33) by using Margalef’s Richness Index. Site C showed the highest subfamily evenness (E = 0.86) by using Evenness Indices.
