Abstract

Papua has a high diversity of butterflies, especially in mainland areas. Most of the data on the diversity and distribution of Papilionoidea, such as the example of Papilio ulysses in the mainland of Papua, are well known. Butterfly research in Papua is mostly aimed at species richness and abundance. Based on the results of specimen collection at the Papua Insect Collection Laboratory (KSP) Br Henk van Mastrigt FMIPA UNCEN, it can be seen that there are differences in morphological characters between P. ulysses in several areas in Papua, especially in the highlands and lowlands. The purpose of this study was to analyze the phenotypic plasticity pattern of P. ulysses stored in the KSP Laboratory. This research method is descriptive quantitative. The research sample consisted of 58 specimens with perfect wing shapes. The specimens were collected from Jayapura, Sarmi, Mamberamo, Timika, Pegunungan Bintang, Waropen and Biak-Supiori. The samples were documented using a digital camera and observed for wing variations using the Adobe Photoshop CS5 and Image J free program. Based on the observations, it shows that there are significant differences in the shape and size of P. ulysses that are found on the mainland and on islands. The morphology of butterflies originating from large areas is bigger than those of butterflies on islands. This butterfly plasticity process is a form of morphological adaptation to the surrounding environment.  Key words: plasticity; P. ulysses; butterfly; Papua.

Abstract

Insects have a very important role in maintaining the balance of the forest ecosystem and supporting the continuity of life in the forest. The main roles of insects in the forest include as pollinators, predators, decomposers, pest controllers and as indicators of environmental health. However, there is no data regarding the diversity and ecological function of insects in the Isyo Hills Rhepang Muaif tourist forest. Insect sampling technique uses the scan sampling method. Insect diversity data is analyzed using the Shannon-Wiener species diversity index. Based on research conducted in the Isyo Hills Rhepang Muaif Tourism Forest, Nimbokrang District, Jayapura Regency, a total of 606 individual insects were found with 54 types of insects representing 8 different orders, namely: Order Lepidoptera (26 types= 48%), Orthoptera (7 types= 13%), Coleoptera (6 types= 11%), Hemiptera (6 types= 11%), Odonata (4 types= 7%), Hymenoptera (2 types = 4%), Diptera (2 types = 4%) and the Order Blattodea (1 type= 2%). The results of the analysis show that species diversity in each insect order is in the medium and low categories. The Shannon-Wiener index (H') value for each order ranges from 0–2.99. Insects obtained from sampling results fall into eight levels of important ecological roles (feeding groups/ functional groups/trophic guilds) in nature, namely pollinators, phytophagous, xylophagous, predators, omnivores, carnivores, granivores and detrivores
