This study examines the correlation between butterflies and plants in open and shaded habitats within Srengseng Urban Forest, West Jakarta, to understand biodiversity patterns and inform sustainable urban landscape planning. Field observations were conducted from January to March, 2024, in two habitat types open (sunlit) and shaded (canopied). Butterfly species and flowering plants were recorded using purposive sampling, alongside measurements of environmental factors. Species diversity was analyzed using the Shannon-Wiener and evenness indices, while Pearson correlation assessed the relationship between butterfly abundance and flowering plant percentage. A total of 601 butterfly individuals from 43 species were found, with higher richness in open habitats (401 individuals, 40 species) than in shaded ones (200 individuals, 27 species). Diversity in both habitats was moderate, and the evenness index showed high distribution uniformity. A strong positive correlation (r = 0.76) was found between butterfly abundance and flowering plant presence. These findings suggest that both plant availability and microclimatic conditions significantly influence butterfly distribution. The study underscores the importance of flowering plants in supporting pollinators and highlights the need for habitat-specific conservation. Efforts like eco-tourism and pollinator gardens can promote community involvement, sustain livelihoods, and preserve mutualistic plant-insect interactions in urban green spaces. Furthermore, this finding will have a significant impact, supporting the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly Goal 11: Sustainable cities and communities, and also sustainable agriculture.
