This study was conducted to know the wetland insect diversity at Gonggeom-ji in Sangju city which is the first
designated paddy field wetland protection by the Ministry of Environment of Korea in 2011. Data was collected at
four times from March to November in 2014 using by Searching, Sweeping and Pitfall trap methods. In this study a
total of 227 species of 205 genera belonging to 78 families from 8 orders were collected and individuals were 1,327.
Among them, the order of Coleoptera was the most species-rich (42.73%), Hemiptera was the second order
(22.47%). In the total diversity index (H') was 6.339 that means highly positive. Dominant Index (DI) was 0.143,
Evenness index (EI) was 0.810. Over all survey periods, interspecies competitiveness was high, and community
stability was also high. Therefore Gonggeom-ji wetland revealed stable and positive environmental situation.
