Abstract
Butterfly (Lepidoptera) are beneficial as pollinators, silk producers, indicators of environmental
quality, and are appreciated for their aesthetic value. The objective of the research was to
study analyze the distribution and diversity of butterfly (Lepidoptera) in Manado Tua Montauin,
region of Bunaken National Marine Park, North Sulawesi. This research was conducted over
two months, between Juni and Juli, 2011 using a sweeping technique applied to follow the line
transect length of 1000 meters at random in each habitat type (primary forest, secondary forest,
gardens and shrubs). The result found 28 species from 4 families (Papilionidae, Nymphalidae,
Lycaenidae, and Pieridae ). The distribution of each butterfly species is different along habitat.
The highest diversity index value (H‘=2.16) was found at shrubs, while the lowest diversity
index value (H‘=0.33) was found at primary forest. This research is expected to be the basic
data on butterfly diversity and effects of habitat changes on the diversity and distribution of
butterfly in North Sulawesi
