The mean number of species present on
the different land use types and the season sampled
were significantly different (Table 1). The trends
in the species richness pattern showed JT had the
highest mean number of species of all land use
types. Annual crop land had the lowest species
richness in all sampling periods. Ant species
richness was higher in September (rainy season)
than in April (hot season) and December (cold
season). However the results showed an anomaly
in F8 which had a higher number of species than
any other land use type in the April sampling
