Abstract

To know the effect of plantation on biodiversity in a degraded land, we compared butterfly fauna between a heavily degraded area dominated by grasses, Themeda triandra and Heteropogon contortus, and a nearby plantation forest both on Lombok, Indonesia. We found that forest plantation onto the degraded land did not damage the butterfly fauna in planted area. Extrapolating the present results we discuss impacts on biodiversity that we have to consider when we are engaged in an afforestation and reforestation Clean Development Mechanism project.
