Assessment of insect biological diversity in various land use systems in the Peruvian Amazon
Original language description
Amazonian rain forest forms one of the most precious ecosystems and provides habitat for more than 50% described plant and animal species. This unique ecosystem is highly disturbed by human activities, which causes biodiversity losses. Biodiversity monitoring and conservation plays one of the most important roles of tropical environment protection. This study is focused on the assessment of species diversity and species richness in various land use systems around Pucallpa city in the Peruvian Amazon. Asthe biodiversity indicative group class Insecta was chosen. Insects were collected on six localities (a secondary forest, two types of agroforestry systems, a cassava monoculture and two deforested and degraded sites covered by weed vegetation) using 24h-pitfall traps and sweeping net. Our presumptions were that the species richness and diversity of secondary forest and agroforestry systems are higher than in monoculture cropping and degraded sites. We also supposed that in secondary fo
