Abstract

The diurnal butterflies, are present all over the world and have biological requirements that are well known, so the study of their communities provide us valuable information on the state of conservation of the ecosystems and the processes of environmental alteration. In this study, species which are found in the Biological Station of Torretes, where is placed in Ibi (Alicante), in the southern hillside of the Natural Park of Font Roja, are made known. It’s a municipal area of 53 ha, ceded in custody of territory by the town hall of Ibi to the Ibero-American Center of Biodiversity (CIBIO) of the University of Alicante. A total of 32 species that lives in this natural area had been found, which suppose the 44% of the species registered in the Natural Park of Font Roja (Alicante) whose extent is 2.298 ha. This data and the abundancy of the registered species, show the importance of this space as a entomological conservation area.
