KENIDAI BAY good condition are generally found in small rivers that are still
DIVERSITY INDEX natural and are one of the most perfect indicators of the health of the
DOMINANCE INDEX aquatic environment. The purpose of this study was to identify
ACIDITY INDEX insects in the Teluk Jering Cinta Island area, around the Kampar
River, Hamlet III, Teluk Kenidai Village, Kampar Regency, Riau.
and calculate the Diversity Index and the Dominance Index. The
method used in this research is the survey method used to determine
the research location and the purposive sampling method is used to
determine the research station based on different ecosystem types,
while for catching insects using the Hand Picking method, survey
method by swinging an insect net. The results of the identification
of aquatic insects obtained 53 individuals consisting of 19 species
and 19 genera. The Diversity Index obtained was categorized as
medium with a value range of 1.88 – 2.8, the Dominance Index was
categorized as low with a value of 0.07-0.16 and the Similarity
Index was categorized as low with a value of 0.43.
