Summary: | This study was conducted in 2019 in Kurşunlu Waterfall Natural Park (Antalya) to investigate the effects of different human activities on insect species. The selected habitats were grouped as habitats with high human activity (K0), low density (K1) and no human activity (K2), and pit trap sampling method was used in these habitats. As a result of the study, Shannon-Wiener and Simpson diversity indexes were found to be higher in the area where human activity is intense compared to the areas where human activity is less and not more balanced. When the percent similarity results between habitats were considered, it was found that habitats did not resemble each other. In addition, this study Dasylabris intermedia (Hymenoptera: Mutillidae) species were identified for the first time in Turkey.
