This study examines the diversity of invasive insect species with the aim of determining the diversity of invasive insect species found in Coban Talun, Batu City, effective and sustainable invasive insect control strategies, as well as conservation actions that need to be taken to maintain the balance of the ecosystem in Coban Talun. This study used a descriptive method using exploration techniques at three observation locations to collect data. This method used was observation of the focus of the problem under study, namely invasive insects which are the object of research. The data collection technique was carried out by exploring the location under study by observing, documenting, describing and identifying specimens using various literature. The results of the study obtained were the discovery of several types of invasive insects including black cockroaches (Phyllodromica maculata), large heath butterflies (Coenonympha tullia), green grasshoppers (Tettigonia viridissima), flies (Musca domestica), Mexican bean beetles (Epilachna varivestis), and soldier beetles (Rhagonycha recta).
