수서곤충 EPT-group을 이용한 무심천의 조사지점별 특성 Characteristics of Musim Stream by Surveyed Sites Based on EPT-group of Aquatic Insects
pp.420-426
본 연구는 무심천의 상류부터 하류까지 총 9개 지점을 선정하여 수서곤충의 EPT-group을 이용하여 EPT-비율, EPT 풍부도, EPT 종수와 개체수를 지점별로 비교분석하였고 수서곤충의 종 조성에 따른 UPGMA분석으로 조사지점간의 유사도를 비교하였으며 수서곤충의 섭식기능군은 하천차수에 의해 비교분석하였다. 조사결과에 의하면 무심천의 수서곤충은 총 8목 36과 71종으로 조사되었고 EPT 비율과 EPT 풍부도는 지점 3에서 각각 0.72, 3.89로 다른 지점에 비해 다소 높게 나타났으며 이와 반대로 지점 9에서는 0.03, 0.09로 비교적 낮게 나타났다. 또한 EPT 종수 및 개체수는 지점 9에서 가장 낮게 나타났다. UPGMA분석 결과 무심천의 각 지점은 A1(st. 1, 7, 8), A2(st. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6), B(st. 9)로 3개의 그룹으로 나뉘었으며 섭식기능군은 지점별 차이는 나타나지 않았지만 상.중류역에서는 써는무리와 긁어먹는 무리가 다른 지점에 비해 다소 높게 나타난 반면 하류에서는 걸러먹는무리와 줍는무리가 우세한 것으로 확인되었다. 본 연구 의하면 조사지점에 따라 수서곤충의 EPT-richness, EPT-ratio, EPT 수 뿐만 아니라 섭식기능군의 조성에도 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다.
This study compared and analyzed EPT ratio, EPT richness and EPT number(number of species and individuals) of a total of 9 selected sites individually using EPT-group of aquatic insects in Musim stream, also compared similarity ratio between the sampling sites using UPGMA(Unweighted Paired Group Method using Arithmetic average) based on analysis subsequent to species structure of aquatic insects, and compared and analyzed a functional feeding groups(FFGs) of aquatic insects based on stream order. As a result, the aquatic insect group of 2,269 individuals is classified as 71 species, 36 families, and 8 orders, and EPT ratio and EPT richness at sites 3(0.72 and 3.89, respectively) were found to be relatively higher than those at the other sites; by contrast, those at site 9(0.03 and 0.09, respectively) were relatively low. EPT number of species and individuals was found to be lowest at site 9. As a result of UPGMA analysis, the sampling sites in Musim stream were divided into three groups, including A1(site 1, 7, 8), A2(site 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) and B(site 9). According to the results of FFGs, there was not shown specific difference in the number of functional feeding groups by each sites; however, there appeared a little more shredders and scrappers in the upper and mid stream comparing to other sampling sites while collector-filterers and collector-gatherers were found to be dominant in number in the lower stream. According to this research result, the sampling sites in Musim stream were found to have an effect on not only EPT richness, EPT ratio, and EPT number but also FFGs structure.
