dc.description.abstractTo observe the diversity and abundance of termites a field experiment was conducted at Hamirpur and Chitrakoot in Bundelkhand region of Uttar Pradesh during 2021-22. Two transects of 100m x100m were laid out in each village in cultivated and uncultivated area, transect was divided into 20 sections of 5m x 2m from which termite samples were collected using the ‗X‘ pattern along with the soil samples. Total six termite species namely Odontotermes obesus, O.gurdaspurensis. O. brunneus, O. redemanni, O. globicola, and Microtermes mycophagus were identified in 110 samples from Hamirpur and Chitrakoot district. The Average number of termite varied from 15 to 52 both cultivated and uncultivated land of Hamirpur during time period of 0-15 to 0-90 minutes. However, the average no. of termites was 14 to 57 at cultivated and uncultivated land of Chitrakoot district during the same time period. All the identified termites belong to the single sub-family Macrotermitinae of the family Termitidae. The highest and the lowest termite abundance encountered was 4 and 1, respectively and the number of termite abundance in uncultivated land was higher in comparison to cultivated land. The abundance of termite in cultivated and uncultivated land of Hamirpur and uncultivated land of Chitrakoot had significant correlation with the organic carbon and organic matter. whereas it has non-significant negative correlation with the cultivated land of Chitrakoot. Shannon index expressed that O. obesus was the most dominant species in the cultivated and uncultivated land of Chitrakoot and in cultivated land of Hamirpur. In uncultivated land of Hamirpur O. gurdaspurensis was dominant.en_US
