  • 산불로 식생이 전소한 소나무림은 덤불이 우거진 초지로의 식생변화가 일어난다. 그러나 산불 당년에는 인접한 소나무림에 서식하는 곤충들이 이입할 가능성이 높아 초지와 덤불로 구성된 산불피해 임지에 산림성 곤충이 일시적으로 득세할 가능성이 있다. 본 연구는 산불 후 1년 동안 피해지에 산림곤충들이 이입하는 현상을 관찰하기 위해 1996년 대형산불이 발생한 강원도의 고성지역에서 피해지와 인접한 소나무 숲에서 딱정벌레류의 발생상황을 비교 조사하였다. 산불지는 60종 381개체, 비산불지는 63종 370개체가 채집되어 차이가 없었다. 피해지에서 출현된 딱정벌레 중 개체수가 비교적 많았던 종들은 대부분 인접 산림에서도 채집되었고, 계절별 채집양상이 산불지와 비산불지가 비슷하여 산불초기에 활발한 곤충의 이입을 나타내었다. 서식처별로는 지표보다는 식생에 서식하는 딱정벌레류의 이입이 활발하였다.

  • Pitfall traps that use ethylene glycol as a preservative solution are commonly used in arthropod research. However, a recent surge in cases involving damage to these traps by roe deer or wild boars owing to the sweet taste of ethylene glycol has prompted the addition of quinone sulfate, a substance with a pungent taste, to deter such wildlife interference. This study aimed to assess the effects of quinone sulfate on arthropods collected from pitfall traps containing ethylene glycol. We strategically positioned 50 traps using ethylene glycol alone and 50 traps containing a small amount of quinone sulfate mixed with ethylene glycol in a grid pattern for systematic sampling at the Gwangneung Forest long-term ecological research (LTER) site. Traps were collected 10 days later. The results revealed a notable effect on ants when quinone sulfate was introduced. Specifically, it decreased the number of ants. In a species-specific analysis of ants, only Nylanderia flavipes showed a significant decline in response to quinone sulfate, whereas other ant species remained unaffected. Additionally, among the arthropod samples obtained in this survey, we identified species or morpho-species of spiders, beetles, and ants and assessed species diversity. Consequently, the utilization of quinone sulfate should be undertaken judiciously, taking into account the specific species composition and environmental characteristics of the monitoring site. Our study also highlighted the significant response of various arthropod groups to variations in leaf litter depth, underscoring the crucial role of the leaf litter layer in providing sustenance and shelter for ground-foraging arthropods. Furthermore, we have compiled comprehensive species lists of both spiders and ants in Gwangneung forest by amalgamating data from this investigation with findings from previous studies.
