Effects of Anthropogenic Disturbances on Dragonfly Assemblages in Tropical Rain Forest
Original language description
This study analyses the adult dragonfly assemblage pattern against spatial and temporal disturbance characteristics in Indonesia?s Sungai Wain Protection Forest. Adult dragonfly assemblages at individual sampling sites were analysed in relation to (1) their intensity, (2) frequency of human-caused disturbances, and (3) the time since the last such disturbance, while controlling random variables (type of aquatic and terrestrial habitat) were removed. This study tests the effect of these factors on (1) species richness, (2) proportion of Zygoptera, (3) proportion of forest specialists, and (4) proportion of Borneo?s endemics. The humaninduced disturbances in the rain forest resulted in pronounced changes in the taxonomical composition and functional diversity of the odonate fauna. Results reported here demonstrate that gradual changes in the odonate assemblages correspond to the degree of anthropogenic influences on forest environments.
