Abstract

광릉 숲과 국립수목원내 전시원을 중심으로 1998년부터 2008년까지 11년간 총 291회 조사한 나비 조사 자료를 이용하여 나비군집의 종풍부도(종수)를 추정하였다. 선조사법으로 조사한 결과 112종 13,333개체의 나비가 관찰되었다. 종수누적곡선의 작성과 종수추정은 EstimatesS 프로그램을 이용하였다. 종수누적곡선은 291회 조사에서도 증가하여 미발견종이 남아 있음을 나타낸 반면, 7개 방법(ACE, ICE, Chao1, Chao2, Jack1, Jack2, Bootstrap)에 의한 종수추정곡선은 조사회수가 240-250회에 도달했을 때 안정된 값에 수렴하였다. 7개 방법에 의해 산정된 광릉의 나비종수는 120종부터 141종 사이였으며, 평균값은 128종이었다. 이에 반해 1958년 이래 보고된 과거조사자료를 취합하여 작성한 종목록은 148종이었는데, 최근의 나비상 변화의 분석결과를 토대로 나비 종수의 타당한 값을 검토하였다. 수목원내 전시원의 종풍부도가 자연림과 인공림 보다 높았고 자연림과 인공림 사이에서는 차이는 나타나지 않았다. 수목원내 전시원에는 상대적으로 숲에 비해 초지가 많고 서식처가 더 다양한 것이 나비군집의 종풍부도가 높아진 원인으로 판단하였다. Species richness (number of species) of the butterfly community in the Gwangneung forest, Korea, was estimated using data of the long-term butterfly monitoring, which had been carried out 291 times in the Korea National Arboretum or forest area of Gwangneung from 1998 to 2008. Abundance of each butterfly species was monitored using the line-transact method. In the present study, 13,333 butterflies belonging to 112 species were observed. Species accumulation curve and species richness was obtained using a software, EstimateS. The species accumulation curve shows an increase tendency even at 291 survey times, implying the possibility of the presence of a few unfound species. However, values of species richness estimated by the seven estimators were stabilized around 240-250 survey times. Species richness estimated by the estimators ranged from 120 species to 141 species with 128 species in average. However, the figure estimated by the previous studies since 1958 was 148 species. We estimated the reasonable scale of species richness on the base of recent analysis on the change of butterfly species. Species richness of the Korea National Arboretum was higher than that of natural forest and of plantation. However, species richness of butterfly was not different between natural forest and plantation. It is likely that increase of grasslands and habitat diversity in arboretum led to the increase of species richness of butterfly community.
