The purpose of this study was to develop inventory system of potentially entomopathogenic fungi from the termites' nests at Seulawah Ecosystem, Aceh, Indonesia. The identification and pathogenicity test of the entomopathogenic fungi were conducted at Zoology and Microbiology Laboratories, Syiah Kuala University. We found that a potential entomopathogenic fungus, Aspergilus sp., from nest of termite (Nasutitermes spp.). Laboratory studies have shown that this entomopathogenic fungus affected to control termite Coptotermes sp. Aspergillus fungus has a great potency to be applied as a biological control agent against the termite. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
