OSPINA-LOPEZ, Leonardo A.; ANDRADE-C., M. Gonzalo  e  REINOSO-FLOREZ, Gladys. Butterflies diversity and their relationship to the landscape in the Lagunillas River basin in north Tolima, Colombia. Rev. acad. colomb. cienc. exact. fis. nat. [online]. 2015, vol.39, n.153, pp.455-474. ISSN 0370-3908.  https://doi.org/10.18257/raccefyn.215.

The present study was conducted in north Tolima to characterize the butterflies associated with fragments of forest, brushwood/stubbles and grass. The geographical coordinates of the edges of every habitat in a smallholding of 0.6 km of radius were registered with the aim of finding the correlations between landscape attributes and the butterfly community represented by 266 species distributed in six families. Structural differences between the habitats can help explain the differences in the richness and diversity of butterflies because the communities respond differently to the habitat.
