The purpose of this study was to determine the diversity and abundance of insect pollinator and to determine the correlation of insect pollinator to the distance between farmland and the conservation area of Mount Ciremai National Park (MCNP). The method used is scan sampling. Traps were installed sequentially at intervals of 100m, with 5 observation points (100 m, 200 m, 300 m, 400 m, and 500 m) with 3 replications. There are 573 individual insects found, with a value of H '= 3.285 (moderate diversity). There are 94 individuals (relative abundance = 16.4%) were insect pollinator, consisting of 3 orders, 7 families, and 8 species. The pollinator species found were: Anopilus, Athyma perius, Campsomeris plumipes fossulana, Erynnis tages, Pison spinolae, Syrphus ribesii, Vanessa sp, and Xylocopa. The order of Hymenoptera was most found followed by the order of Lepidoptera and Diptera. The distance between farmland and the MCNP area has a positive correlation (r = 0.592) with the amount of pollinator, meaning that the amount of pollinator increases as the distance between farmland and the MCNP area increases. The distance between farmland and the MCNP area has a negative correlation (r = -0.576) with the amount of insect species, meaning that the distance the farmland to the MCNP area increasingly, more insect species are found.
