Resumen

El entomoturismo, además de ser un servicio en función del turismo, también incluye un enfoque de educación ambiental hacia la protección de insectos, la preservación de los ecosistemas y la conservación de su diversidad. Con este servicio, enfocado en los lepidópteros, se da a conocer la importancia de esta clase de insectos y los servicios ofrecidos. Por ello, esta investigación se enfoca en presentar el establecimiento de una línea de entomoturismo académico con lepidópteros, para promover la conservación de la biodiversidad a partir la educación ambiental en el Parque Metropolitano María Lucía de Villavicencio, Meta. Durante el proceso, por medio de la observación, búsqueda bibliográfica y trabajo de campo, se analizaron la morfología, el ciclo de vida, el comportamiento y la relación con la planta hospedera. Asimismo, se estudiaron los servicios ecosistémicos que brindan los lepidópteros, como plataforma para implementar estrategias de educación ambiental hacia las comunidades y el público en general. También, se realizaron visitas a instituciones, con el fin de compartir conocimientos con los estudiantes sobre la conservación, identificación y preservación de las especies de lepidópteros de la zona, mediante recorridos en un territorio que abarca varios ecosistemas, como base del servicio de entomoturismo académico.
