| Abstract: | The insect fauna of the Crater District of Haleakala National Park was surveyed during the summers of 1975-77. During this period 389 species were collected of which 235 are endemic (60.4%). Eighty-three species are unique to Haleakala. Two species, the Argentine ant and a ground-nesting yellowjacket, present serious resource management problems. Their eradication is recommended. However, the most beneficial management action for the insect fauna would be the elimination of the feral goat and pig from the area. |
