Abstract

Butterflies belong to the order Lepidoptera which has essential roles such as pollinating insects (pollinators), evaluating environmental quality, and indicators of habitat change. The research aims to determine the types of butterflies, diversity, relative abundance, and dominance index in the Sibayak II Forest area of North Sumatra. This research is a quantitative descriptive research by combining the cruising method and the VES method. Sampling was carried out at three altitudes 1300-1500 masl, 1500-1700 masl, and 1700-1900 masl using insect nets. The results obtained were 31 species of butterflies from 6 families, with the highest number of individuals from three heights, namely Mycalesispatiana in Sibayak II Forest, North Sumatra. The index value of butterfly species diversity in Sibayak  II Forest with an average value of 2.67 is included in the medium category. The relative abundance index value of the most abundant butterfly species is the Mycalesis patiana with a discount of 34%. The overall butterfly dominance index value is 0.124. Based on the species diversity index, relative abundance and dominance index indicate environmental conditions in accordance with the life cycle and food sources as well as the distribution of host plants in Sibayak  II Forest.
北苏门答腊锡巴亚克 II 号森林中基于海拔高度变化的蝴蝶类型(鳞翅目:Rhopalocera)多样性
蝴蝶属于鳞翅目,具有授粉昆虫(传粉昆虫)、评估环境质量和栖息地变化指标等重要作用。本研究旨在确定北苏门答腊锡巴亚克二期森林地区的蝴蝶种类、多样性、相对丰度和优势指数。本研究是一项定量描述性研究,结合了巡游法和 VES 法。在海拔 1300-1500 米、1500-1700 米和 1700-1900 米的三个海拔高度使用捕虫网进行了取样。结果发现了 6 个科 31 种蝴蝶,其中以北苏门答腊岛锡巴亚克 II 森林的 Mycalesispatiana 三个高度的个体数量最多。西巴亚克二号森林的蝴蝶物种多样性指数值平均为 2.67,属于中等水平。数量最多的蝴蝶物种是Mycalesis patiana,其相对丰度指数值为34%。总体蝴蝶优势指数值为 0.124。根据物种多样性指数、相对丰度和优势指数,可以看出西巴雅克二期森林的环境条件与蝴蝶的生命周期和食物来源以及寄主植物的分布相一致。
