The data analysis was used ecology index that include Shanon-Winner (H’), Evennes index (E’) and Simpson domination index (D). Based on data analysis was gotten that (1) there were 1,957 total of diversity index or include medium categories, (2) there were 0,816 the total number of grasshopper species of evenness index or include medium categories (3) there were 0,178 total number domination index of species with low categories.
