Abstract

Butterfly observation research in the Arboretum City Forest area has been widely known, but research related to interaction of butterflies and flowering plants is still scarce. The Aim of this study was to determined the interaction of butterflies and flowering plants in the Cibubur Arboretum City Forest area. We found 45 species, 4 families with 232 individuals, which consists of four butterfly families, includingPapilionidae, Pieridae, Nymphalidae, and Lycenidae. The results of this study are different from the results ofresearch conducted in 2014. We found that the number of individuals and species are decreased. Based on the diversity index value in 2014, and current situation,has a similar moderate category diversity index. This can be due to the presence of the same feed plants and host plants in this area. Several types of flowering plants were found at the research site: Asystasiagangetica, Emilia sanchofolia, Synedrella sp., Kyllingasp., and Mimosa pudica. There are some of the same plants found in both opened and closed habitats such asPolyalthialongifolia, Diffenbachiaseguine, Cecropianpeltata, Parkiaspeciosa , and Swieteniamahagoni. The butterfly species Leptosianina is one of the species found in high numbers in the Arboretum City Forest area, due to the many host plants found in this area. The correlation analysis showed a strong relationship between flowering plants and the number of individual butterflies in both habitats (opened and closed). The Asystasyagangetica plant is widely used by butterflies as a food source

Abstract

Butterflies are one type of insect that functions as a pollinator. Research on butterflies in the Bodogol Nature Conservation Education Area (PPKAB), has already been published, but research on the correlation of butterflies with flowering plants has not yet been published. The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between butterflies and flowering plants in the PPKB area. The research was conducted in February-June 2022 in heterogeneous and homogeneous forests. The research was conducted using purposive sampling method. In each observation, 10 plots were observed in heterogeneous on 3 lanes (Rasamala, Canopi, and Aprika), and in homogeneous forest on 3 lanes (Cikaweini-Cipadaranten, and Gembong koneng). Research using cameras and insect nets. In this study, 78 species, 4 families with 261 individuals were found in heterogeneous forests, and 39 species, 5 families with 158 individuals in homogeneous forests. Butterfly families: Papilionidae, Pieridae, Nymphalidae, Lycenidae, and Rionidae. The Nymphalidae family is one of the families with the highest number of species and individuals compared to other families. Based on the index value of butterfly diversity, it is classified as high (heterogeneous) and medium (homogeneous). High evenness index in both habitats. Jamides celeno is one of the dominant species in both habitats. Correlation analysis showed that there was a strong relationship between flowering plants and the number of individual butterflies in both habitats (heterogeneous and homogeneous).
