dc.description.abstract	Though ants are ubiquitous in distribution, scientific recording of their diversity in various ecological niches, particularly islands, is far from satisfactory. Hence an attempt was made to record ant species richness in Chorao Island of Goa, a coastal island known for considerably rich biodiversity. This island, about 2.1 km2 in area, was found to harbour 38 species of ants belonging to 24 genera and six subfamilies.
