Hasil pada penelitian ini Terdapat 4 perilaku harian semut rangrang yaitu menunjukkan bahwa pukul 18.00-20.00 menunjukkan adanya perilaku Beristirahat (26,92%), Berinteraksi (36,80%), Mencari Makan (20,89%), dan Pemindahan Larva (15,39%). Pada pukul 21.00-23.00 menunjukkan adanya perilaku Beristirahat (75,00%), Berinteraksi (15,39%), dan Mencari Makan (9,62%). Sedangkan pada pukul 24.00-02.00 menunjukkan adanya perilaku Beristirahat (61,95%), Berinteraksi (19,47%), Mencari Makan (14,16%), dan Pemindahan Larva (4,42%). Dan pada pukul 03.00-05.00 menunjukkan adanya perilaku Beristirahat (49,22%), Berinteraksi (32,81%), Mencari Makan (14,84%), dan Pemindahan Larva (3,13%).Kesimpulannya adalah perilaku harian semut Rangrang pada malam hari di perkebunan kelapa sawit tidak terlau aktif dimana terdapat 4 periaku yaitu perilaku beristirahat, mencari makan, berinteraksi dan pemindahan telur larva.

Keywords: Identification, Behavior, Rangrang Ants, Night, Oil Palm Gardens Ants are a group of insects whose existence is very common and widespread compared to other insect groups, daytime activities have been observed, but not for activity at night. The purpose of this study was to determine the daily behavior of Rangrang ants at night in oil palm plantations. This research was conducted in Sei Kasih Village, Bilah Hilir District, Labuhan Batu Regency, carried out in October 2021. Sampling was carried out on 2 research plots on oil palm plants aged 1-5 years. Data was collected using Scan Animal Sampling, with an area of each plot of 10m x 10m. Data analysis in this study was analyzed descriptively. The results in this study there are 4 daily behaviors of weaver ants, which shows that 18.00-20.00 shows resting behavior (13.61%), interacting (18.61%), foraging for food (10.56%), and larval transfer (7.78%). At 21.00-23.00, it shows the behavior of Resting (21.67%), Interacting (4.44%), and Looking for Food (2.78%). Meanwhile, at 24.00-02.00, there were resting behaviors (19.44%), interacting (6.11%), foraging for food (4.44%), and larval transfer (1.39%). And at 03.00-05.00, it showed the behavior of resting (17.50%), interacting (11.67%), foraging for food (5.28%), and transferring larvae (1.11%). The conclusion is that the daily behavior of Rangrang ants at night in oil palm plantations is not too active where there are 4 behaviors, namely resting behavior, foraging for food, interacting and transferring larvae eggs.
