Abstract

Ecological occupation in irrigation ponds is a well-acknowledged fact that is essential for biodiversity conservation in agricultural ecosystems. However, there are few studies on the ecological functions and relationship between a paddy field and irrigation using macroinvertebrates in an environmentally friendly paddy field. The objective of this study is to identify the community and distribution characteristics of macroinvertebrates in an agricultural paddy field and irrigation pond ecosystems, and to provide basic data on the ecological function of an environmentally friendly paddy field. Macroinvertebrate sampling was conducted from May to September in an agricultural paddy field and irrigation pond in an environment-friendly paddy field in Boryeong city. We conducted a study to identify the distribution characteristics using macroinvertebrate species analysis, such as Functional Feeding Groups (FFGs), Habitat Oriented Groups (HOGs), rarefaction curve, and a two-way dendrogram. A total of 37 species of macroinvertebrates in 28 families, 13 orders were collected study during the period of the investigation. Dominant taxa of macroinvertebrates included Coleoptera, Hemiptera, and Odonata. In terms of FFGs, predators and gathering collectors accounted for approximately 70%, in relation to HOGs, and climbers and swimmers occupied more than 50% from both the paddy field and irrigation pond. With respect to the rarefaction curve, the irrigation pond (July) was high as E (S, 141)=18 species, while the paddy field (May) was comparatively low as E (S, 141)=9 species. In conclusion, our results revealed that macroinvertebrates, such as Notonecta triguttata, Peltodytes intermedius, Appasus major, Laccotrephes japonensis, Appasus japonicus, Sigara substriata, Enochrus simulans, and Sternolophus rufipes, were used as a habitat and spawning ground in both paddy field and irrigation pond. The irrigation pond appears to be a very important spawning ground for macroinvertebrates.

본 연구에서는 논과 둠벙에 서식하는 저서성대형무척추동물 군집 및 분포 특성을 규명하고, 논과 둠벙의 생태적 기능에 대한 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 2021년 5월부터 2021년 9월까지 충청남도 보령시 은행마을 내 논과 둠벙을 대상으로 저서성대형무척추동물에 대한 조사를 실시하였다. 조사 결과 총 37종의 저서성대형무척추동물이 서식하는 것을 확인하였다. 논과 둠벙에서 서식기능군은 기어오르는무리와 헤엄치는무리가 50% 이상을 차지하는 것으로 나타났으며, 섭식기능군 측면에서는 잡아먹는무리와 주워먹는무리가 약 70%를 차지하는 것으로 나타났다. 월별 Rarefaction curve를 분석한 결과, 7월 둠벙에서 E (S, 141)=18종으로 가장 높게 나타났으며, 5월 논에서 E (S, 141)=9종으로 가장 적은 것으로 확인되었다. 논과 둠벙을 대상으로 서식 및 산란장소로 이용하는 저서성대형무척추동물은 노린재목인 송장헤엄치게(Notonecta triguttata), 물진드기(Peltodytes intermedius), 큰물자라(Appasus major), 장구애비(Laccotrephes japonensis), 물자라(Appasus japonicus), 방물벌레(Sigara substriata)와 딱정벌레목인 애넓적물땡땡이(Enochrus simulans), 애물땡땡이(Sternolophus rufipes)로 확인되어 둠벙이 농업생태계 내 생물다양성의 유지와 보전에 중요한 기능을 하는 것을 확인하였다.
