摘要

据估计，热带和南温带地区蕴藏着约 85% 的昆虫群，而巴西作为新热带地区最大的国家，其昆虫多样性居世界之首。然而，据我们所知，巴西人对昆虫的兴趣还有待调查。我们利用谷歌趋势平台来探索公众与自然接触的时间变化。从 2012 年到 2020 年在该数据库中使用 21 个昆虫类群的俗名进行的搜索中，我们评估了：(I) 巴西人在互联网上对昆虫的兴趣随时间的变化；(II) 每个昆虫类群的最高搜索主题；(III) 哪些昆虫对公众的兴趣在不同年份呈正相关或负相关。我们的研究结果表明，巴西人对所研究的昆虫类群的网络兴趣随着时间的推移而保持不变，这可能与这些生物通常受到的关注较低有关，而且巴西人容易认为它们是有害的，这一点我们可以从许多与所研究类群相关的热门查询中观察到。我们观察到，人们对被视为家畜害虫、具有重要医学价值和魅力的成对昆虫的兴趣同步增长，对这些群体的搜索主要涉及其生物、生态和文化方面。我们的研究结果表明，在巴西对环境教育的投资可以激发公众对昆虫的兴趣。此外，我们的数据对于指导热带地区的昆虫保护政策至关重要。
