* Abstract Kon Ka Kinh National Park Belongs to Kon Tum Plateau and Has High Value of Diversity in Vietnam Forestry 1* Abstract Kon Ka Kinh National Park belongs to Kon Tum Plateau and has high value of diversity in Vietnam Forestry. Since the first survey in 1999, the butterflies in Kon Ka Kinh is little known. We conducted the investigation to study their butterfly population and factors affect butterfly distribution in a mountainous forest. Pollard walk method with a hand-net method was used for observation. 323 species were recorded, including 235 species in this survey. There were three new records for Vietnam and three new records in Central Vietnam. Nymphalidae is the dominating family. Our result indicated the impact of seasons, water resource, elevation and forest type on butterfly diversity. Their diversity is higher in the rainy season, where above ground water resource is highly available. The diversity indexes also are higher at a lower elevation and disturbed forest area. 1 I.

INTRODUCTION 1.1. Background Among invertebrate conservation group, the butterflies are among one of the most popular focal groups. They are well known as indicators of tropical forest ecosystems and their ecological condition. (Oostermeijer & Van Swaay, 1998). Butterflies are a good group of insects for studying the effects of human activity. Under pressure from population growth, the forest area is destroying to increase the fragmentation and biodiversity loss. A butterfly is a sensitive group with the changing of the environment (Mecenero, 2015). In many representatives of this group, the specific characteristics of coloration, wing pattern, and genital morphology may demonstrate biogeographical information and provide useful parameters for studying the geographic variability of species. Butterflies represent a suitable object for solving the problems related to the specific features of geographic, landscape, seasonal, and climatic distribution of species (A. Monastyrskii, 2007b). Among many reasons that could be named to justify the use of this group as an object for solving the above problems, the following are most important: (1) The butterfly taxonomy is well-developed (De Jong, Vane-Wright, & Ackery, 1996; Rod & Ken, 1988); (2) They are present in practically all the known tropical habitats of Vietnam (A. Monastyrskii & Holloway, 2013; A. L. Monastyrskii & Devyatkin, 2015); (3) Their life cycle is often associated with specific host plants and some other groups of insects and vertebrate animals. The changes in the vegetation are always accompanied by the changes in the taxonomic composition of primary consumers, including butterflies (Dover, 1996; Ehrlich & Raven, 1964); (4) Butterflies can be easily observed and counted in nature, and can therefore be used for demonstrating seasonal changes in abundance (Pollard, 1975; Pyle, Hughes, & Institute, 1992); (5) The boundaries of distribution ranges of butterflies can be vertified with a satisfactory degree of precision based on museum collections and illustrated 1 guides; (6) In many representatives of this group, the specific traits of coloration, wing pattern, and genital morphology provide the biogeographical information and provide convenient parameters for studying the geographic variability of species (Benedick et al., 2007; Dover, 1996; Gilbert & Singer, 1975) During the last twenty years, butterflies have been successfully utilized by many national and international programs for conservation activity as a perfect tool supplementing the main methodology for the assessment of natural resources(Bonebrake, Ponisio, Boggs, & Ehrlich, 2010; T. New, Pyle, Thomas, Thomas, & Hammond, 1995; T. R. New, 1997). Practically nearly all conservation projects implemented in Vietnam from 1993 have included butterfly study into biodiversity research programs. These faunistic surveys showed a high level of butterfly diversity and character of species distributions (A. Monastyrskii, 2007a; A. L. Monastyrskii & Devyatkin, 2015). There were discovered a high number of species which have been described as new to science. Many of these new species are endemics to Vietnam and were found very locally (A. L. D. Monastyrskii, Alexey, 2000, 2012). The majority of endemic species are characterized by restricted ranges and are located in some topographically isolated mountain areas including mountain massifs of Vietnamese central highlands: Central Truong Son Range; Kon Tum Plateau, and for example, Kon Ka Kinh and Ngoc Linh national parks. Kon Ka Kinh is an isolated mountain massif located in Gia Lai Province of Kon Tum Plateau. It is situated within Endemic Bird Area and supports six restricted-range bird species(Le, 2000). Kon Ka Kinh is also a globally important site for the

  • The Biogeography of the Butterfly Fauna of Vietnam with a Focus on the Endemic Species (Lepidoptera)
    Chapter 5 The Biogeography of the Butterfly Fauna of Vietnam With a Focus on the Endemic Species (Lepidoptera) A.L. Monastyrskii and J.D. Holloway Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/55490 1. Introduction Long term studies of Vietnamese Rhopalocera suggest that by using a taxonomic composition analysis of the modern fauna, with ecological and biogeographical characteristics and comparative data with butterfly faunas of adjacent regions, it is possible to offer a plausible account of the history and derivation of the Vietnamese fauna. In former works on the butterfly fauna of Vietnam and of the Oriental tropics generally, we completed the first steps in understanding possible derivation mechanisms for the group. In particular, all Vietnamese butterfly species have been classified according to their global geographical ranges (Holloway, 1973; 1974; Spitzer et al., 1993; Monastyrskii, 2006; 2007), from the most restricted to the most widespread (Methods). A similar approach for notodontid moths in Thailand has been adopted by Schintlmeister & Pinratana (2007). Moreover, depending on the representation of various species distribution range categories, a scheme of biogeographical zonation has been suggested (Monastyrskii, 2006; 2007). In continuing studies on the specificity and derivation of the modern Vietnam butterfly fauna, aspects of species range configuration and other parameters of butterfly distribu‐ tions are considered in the current work. For example, it is possible to assign genera to groups according to both their overall range and variation of their species-richness across that range (Holloway, 1969, 1974) or according to representation of particular species range types within the genera (Holloway, 1998).

Diversity of butterfly communities of a tropical rain forest of Bu Gia Map National Park in South Vietnam was studied in four different habitat types (the natural forest, the disturbed forest, the bamboo forest, and the stream sides in the forest) in December 2008 and April 2009. A total of 112 species with 1703 individuals of Papilionoidae (except Lycaenidae) were recorded. The proportion of rare species tends to decrease from the natural forest to the stream sides, while the proportion of common species tends to increase from the natural forest to the stream sides. The stream sides have the greatest individual number, while the disturbed forest contains the greatest species number. The bamboo forest has the least species and individual numbers.

Aggressive interactions, community, foraging strategy, interference competition, resources, tree sap Abstract. Many insect species attracted to fermenting sap often fight for access to this resource, which results in the establishment of interspecific dominance hierarchies. In one such system, the hornet Vespa mandarinia (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) behaviourally dominates during the daytime and several subordinate species avoid aggressive interactions in various ways. In order to elucidate the interspecific variation in competitor-avoidance behaviour and its subsequent effect on foraging success, the behaviour of species of hornets, beetles and butterflies at patches (exudation spots) in Japan was recorded.
