Pollinator insects are insects that play a role in pollinating plants. This research was conducted in December-January 2020 at the Liwa Botanical Garden which aims to determine the types and daily activities of pollinator insects in the Liwa Botanical Garden Ornamental and Fruit Parks. The research used observation methods in 2 locations, namely Ornamental Gardens and Fruit Gardens. Pollinator insect sampling using a sweap net. The data obtained were analyzed descriptively. The results found that including pollinator insects in the Ornamental Park were 11 species and 165 individuals, namely (Junonia orithya, Hypolimnas bolina bolina, Neptis clinioides gunongensis, Oriens gola, Euploea mulciber, Elymnias panthera, Apis cerana, Apis florea, Xilocopa confuse, Lucilia sericerata, Coccinella septempuncata), in the Fruit Garden there were 6 species and 276 individuals, namely (Bactrocera dorsalis, Eurema blanda, Zizina otis, Ypthima baldus newboldi, Apis cerana, and Apis florea). Observation of Junonia orithya's daily activities starts in the morning at 08: 00-11: 00 WIB. Flying activities are initiated by the butterfly around the flower plant then perching on the leaves to sunbathe, suck nectar, suck minerals, suck nectar repeatedly, and look for a partner to carry out mating activities. Observation of daily afternoon activities was carried out at 14: 00-16: 00 WIB Junonia orithya was seen carrying out her activities such as in the morning. When the brightness starts to decrease for example due to rain, the butterflies will rest and take shelter under the leaves or bush environment.

Apis cerana, which is often known as honey bee, has spread from Afghanistan, China, Japan, to Indonesia. This distribution cannot be separated from Apis cerana's ability to survive by needing food. Pollen and nectar are the main food sources for Apis cerana in maintaining life. Apis cerana is widely cultivated by the community with its potential. This article aims to describe in more detail about the forage plants from Apis cerana and how the feeding strategies of honey bees were assembled from several studies in various regions, both in Indonesia and outside Indonesia as well as comparing these daily activities with other Apidae. The discussion is focused on the comparative analysis of the daily activities of Apis cerana with other Apidae to see the uniqueness of Apis cerana which is a factor in the number of bees being cultivated.

A total of 11 bee species belonging to two families Apidae and Megachilidae was identified. The identified species were Apis dorsata, Apis mellifera, Apis cerana, Apis florea, Ceratina binghami, Ceratina nigrolateralis, Xylocopa aestuans, Xylocopa violacea, Xylocopa latipes, Megachile disjuncta and Megachile umbripennis. The species were identified by using standard taxonomic keys. Details of external morphology like head, wing venation, antennal type, physical coloration etc. were used in the keys. The bees were collected from three areas of Dhaka city - Curzon Hall, Ramna Park and Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University from October 2017 to May 2018. During the study period it was observed that the richness of bee species was found maximum during the month of October (31.01%) and was more abundant in Curzon Hall and Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University area than the Ramna park area. The bee A. dorsata was the most abundant (about 36.23% of the total population) and M. umbripennis was the least abundant (about 1.74% of the total population) species in the study areas. It was also observed that bee species were more attracted to the yellow flowers specially Cosmos sulphureus and Tecoma stans than the other coloured flowers. J. Biodivers. Conserv. Bioresour.

Pollination is one of the key components of global biodiversity and is very important for ecosystems in ensuring the maintenance of ecological processes, which are largely responsible for the successful reproduction of native plants. Apis cerana Fabr. including insect pollinators that are widely cultivated in the conservation forest Tahura Ir H Djuanda. Through survey and observation methods, it is known that some plants in Tahura are visited by honey bees, which have great potential for the effectiveness of plant pollination in Tahura. The types of plants visited by honey bees can be classified into agricultural and non-agricultural crops in a radius of 500 meters from Tahura. Based on the data, it is known that honey bees visited non-agricultural plants as many as 39 families and 83 species, while agricultural crops were 6 families and 17 species. So it can be concluded that bees prefer visiting non-agricultural crops rather than agricultural crops in Tahura, therefore the potential for pollination effectiveness by honey bees will be greater in non-agricultural crops such as plants in Tahura to maintain conservation forest biodiversity.
