Abstract:

Jianfengling located in the tropical region in Hainan province of China as the centre of global biodiversity has extremely abundant species and great amount of butterflyies.But the species and population density of butterflies in Jianfengling present a general decreasing trend in recent years.In this paper,we analyzed stress factors on butterfly populations in the region,and pointed out recommendations about their conservation.The changes of precipitation and temperature distribution pattern and the increasing extreme climatic event such as typhoon caused by global climate change are the main climate stress factors of butterfly population decrease.The butterfly habitat destruction and forest margin transitional zone loss caused by land use change are the main artificial stress factors of butterfly population decrease.Protection of forest and restoration of forest margin transitional zone are the basic conditions for protecting the butterfly habitats.Appropriate development and utilization can bring a certain degree of economic benefits,and also can improve people’s awareness and stimulate the motivation of butterfly conservation.

Key words: tropical forest, butterfly, habitat, population density, forest ecosystem
