Keanekaragaman Kupu-Kupu (Lepidoptera) pada Empat Tipe Habitat di Hutan Lindung Gunung Klabat, Sulawesi Utara
Abstrak: The objective of the
research was to study the diversity of butterfly (Lepidoptera) in four habitat
types in
Mt Klabat protection forest, North Sulawesi. This research had been
conducted over three months using a sweeping technique applied to follow the
line transect length of 1000 meters at random in each habitat type (primary
forest, secondary forest, gardens and shrubs). The results showed that there
were 3 families namely Papilionidae, Nymphalidae and Pieridae, with the number
of 29 species and 1014 individuals. The value of diversity based on Shannon
and Wienner diversity index and the
highest was found in the garden (H = 2,24) followed by shrubs (H = 2,12) and the lowest in secondary
forests (H = 1,97). Based on the index Sorensen similarity (Cn) the composition
of butterfly species found in primary forest has a high similarity value with
secondary forest ((IS = 0,86), while the lowest among primary forest with
garden (IS = 0,71). The result of This research is expected to be the basic
data on butterfly diversity and effects of habitat changes on the diversity and
distribution of butterfly in North Sulawesi
