Abstract

Insect populations have declined significantly over the last few decades. Anthropogenic factors such as deforestation, land-use change, climate change, and pesticides play a major role in insect population decline. In addition to those factors, insects also face challenges from air, noise, and light pollution derived from human activities. Light pollution in the form of artificial light at night (ALAN) is generally known to be one of the factors driving insect declines but it has rarely been studied in Indonesia. In this literature review, we collected empirical evidence from previous studies to provide a comprehensive report on the impact of ALAN on insects. Most studies demonstrate a decline in insect populations in areas with high ALAN intensity, such as urban areas. Furthermore, ALAN was reported to disrupt insect visual systems, which results in disturbances to predator avoidance and foraging movements. Until now, most work related to artificial light in Indonesia have focused on light as a method of controlling pests. Hence, studies related to artificial light as a pollutant are urgently needed to increase our understanding of the effects of ALAN on the survival of organisms, especially insects. Future research must seek suitable solutions to create environmentally and ecologically friendly conditions for various organisms, especially those susceptible to the negative effects of light, such as insects.

Abstract

Rainforest conversion into monoculture plantations has decreased tree canopy cover and insect diversity, including Diptera. Diptera is a group of insects that play a crucial role in maintaining the balance of ecosystems. This study aimed to assess the impact of forest conversion to plantations on the diversity and composition of Diptera across four landuse types in Jambi, Sumatra. Diptera sampling was conducted using canopy fogging in two landscapes: Bukit Duabelas National Park and Harapan Rainforest. In each landscape, four land use types were determined: forest, jungle rubber, rubber plantation, and oil palm plantation. A total of 13,513 Diptera individuals were collected, representing 39 families, 169 genera, and 399 species. The dominant family is Cecidomyiidae, and the dominant species is Procontarinia sp. 01. The highest abundance and species richness was found in forest, followed by jungle rubber. The lowest abundance was found in oil palm plantations, while the lowest species richness was found in rubber plantations. ANOVA test results indicated that different land use type significantly influenced Diptera abundance and species richness, whereas landscape had no significant effect. Diptera composition was influenced by land use type, landscape, and the interaction between land use type and landscape. Diptera composition in forest and jungle rubber showed the highest similarity, while the lowest similarity was in forest and oil palm plantation. This composition change was driven by species turnover. In addition, land conversion also caused a shift in dominance, with forests dominated by Cecidomyiidae, then dominance shifted to Ceratopogonidae in monoculture plantations.
