Keywords:
Characteristics, order Lepidoptera, Ujong Pancu beach, vegetationAbstract
The development of coastal areas has an impact on the presence of insects such as butterflies which belong to the order Lepidoptera. Ujong Pancu Beach, Aceh Besar, is one of the tourist beach areas that has not yet become the main destination for local people and those outside Aceh. However, slowly this coastal area is starting to develop and this is thought to have an impact on the presence of butterflies. This research aims to determine the characteristics of the Lepidoptera order at Ujong Pancu Beach. The method used in this research was an exploratory survey along the route to Ujong Pancu Beach. The Lepidoptera order observation method used is the visual control method which is carried out at 5 points. The data obtained were analyzed using descriptive statistical methods. The research results show that there are 7 species of butterflies on Ujong Pancu Beach, Aceh Besar. The Lepidoptera orders found were Danaus chrysippus, Leptosia nina, Zizina otis lamp, Papilio aegeus, Zizina otis indica, Eurema blanda, Papilio polytes. The Lepidoptera orders found on the Ujong Pancu tourist beach in Aceh Besar have a variety of characteristics and their presence is influenced by the vegetation around the beach.
