蝴蝶生物多样性随着草原地带和行作物农业的保护管理而增加

全球蝴蝶的数量正在下降，荟萃分析显示每年下降−2%。农业通过栖息地的丧失和退化导致蝴蝶数量减少。草原地带——积极恢复原生多年生植被的农田地带——是一种有可能减轻生物多样性损失的保护措施，但它们对蝴蝶生物多样性的影响尚不清楚。在一项30年前的实验中，我们将草原地带引入了管理不那么严格的作物处理，该实验改变了从自然区到农田（玉米-大豆-小麦轮作）的土地利用强度。处理方法包括保护性土地、带草原地带的生物（有机）行作物、带草原带的减少投入行作物、免耕行作物和传统行作物。我们测量了蝴蝶的丰度和丰富度：（1）在草原地带内，（2）在地块水平上跨越土地利用强度的梯度。草原地带的蝴蝶数量高于所有其他处理。在地块层面的土地利用强度梯度上，保护性土地处理的丰度最高，草原带处理的丰度中等，免耕和常规处理的丰度最低。同样，在整个地块上，蝴蝶的丰富度随着土地利用强度的降低而增加。草原地带的处理也降低了土地利用强度，具有独特的蝴蝶群落，因为它们含有其他行作物处理中没有的几种蝴蝶。除了已知的草原地带对生态系统服务的影响，包括侵蚀控制和水质改善，草原地带还可以增加多功能景观中的生物多样性。
