Insects Diversity of Kundapura Taluk, Udupi, Karnataka, India

Vijaya Kumar K.M, Manasa Shetty


Abstract: We quantified diversity of insects at Kundapura from February 2017 to March 2018. Field observations were made once in ten days for a year. Identified the species based on their colour of wings, markings, body shape, habit, wing shape, and structure of legs. During one year survey at three different sites such as cropland, plantation and forest, we recorded 69 species of 23 families and 8 orders. In three study areas, higher species richness was recorded at plantation with more number of species in order Lepidoptera indicating availability and access to food plants. In Cropland contains Order Lepidoptera only. The present study reveals that the plantation provides suitable environmental conditions for insects.
