Identificación de los diferentes insectos polinizadores en los cuatro principales parques de la zona urbana de la ciudad de Latacunga 2021-2022.

This research was carried out in the urban area of Latacunga city, georeferenced at latitude -0.93521 and longitude -78.61554, at 2750 meters above sea level. It aimed to identify the different pollinating insects in the four main parks in the urban area at Latacunga city and establish the diversity and similarity indexes between the four parks. An active collection was made using the entomological net, and a passive collection using chromatic-sticky traps and baited traps. The samples were preserved in 70% alcohol to later mount and take photographs to upload them to the iNaturalist Application to identify the individuals collected. For the diversity and similarity indices, the Shannon-Wiener and Sorensen equations were used, respectively. In the chromatic-sticky traps, 1650 individuals were collected; in the attractant traps, 7 individuals were collected, and with the entomological net, 1150 individuals; for the identification, only individuals were collected with the entomological net were considered. Discarding non-pollinating individuals, there were a total of 880 pollinating individuals, with three orders and eight families; the Sarcophagidae family has 62% abundance within the four parks with 713 individuals, followed by the Tachinidae, Calliphoridae family. A pollinator diversity index of 0.87 was established using the Shannon-Wiener equation, which shows low diversity. In addition to a significant similarity of pollinators of 95.23% between the San Francisco and Vicente León parks.
