Insects play a crucial role in agricultural ecosystems with several functional groups. Objective of this research is to determine the directional movement of insect community across oil palm ecosystem at boundaries of different land use. The research was conducted in Ladang Endau-Rompin (LER), Pahang. Six sampling stations were set up in the plantation. Sampling was conducted using impact trap. A total of 4,217 individuals from nine orders and 81 families were collected. The insect orders consist of Hymenoptera, Coleoptera, Hempitera, Diptera, Orthoptera, Dermaptera, Lepidoptera and Siphonaptera. The most abundance families were Sciaridae (585 individuals; 13.87%), Dolichopodidae (517 individuals; 12.26%) and Nitidulidae (382 individuals; 9.06%). This is followed by Formicidae (346 individuals; 8.20%) and Curculionidae (273 individuals; 6.47%). The percentage of individuals for other insect families was less than 5%. Shannon’s Diversity Index of insect families for station J42TB was the highest (H’= 3.011) whereas the lowest was for station J20TB (H’= 2.028). There was a significant difference (t=-25.47, p <0.05) in the diversity of insect between the sampling stations.The edge effect of attraction can be clearly seen in the LER. Dendogram from two-way clustering analysis shows that the insect community can be divided in two groups which came from different directions north, south, east and west. Chi-squared test proved that the insect community that came from every direction (north, south, east, west) was significantly different (χ2= 370.259, p < 0.05). © 2020, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Press.
