“…Butterfly watching is defined as the photographing of butterflies by professionals and amateurs alike in a forest or nature walk and includes the monitoring and identification of butterflies in their habitats. Butterflies are particularly attractive to humans due to their bright and majestic colors, short life spans, being active during the daytime, ability to fly, harmlessness, and symbolic associations with peace and harmony (Genç & Seven, 2020;Lemelin, 2013). Because butterfly watching is a type of ecotourism that should be conducted in nature (Çelik & Topsakal, 2017), it is a suitable tourism activity, especially for small groups and independent travelers, as it does not affect the natural lives of animals (Lemelin, 2013).…”

“…Studies of butterfly watching have gained traction in the last five years. Although butterfly watching is an ancient pastime, it is new as an ecotourism activity (Genç & Seven, 2020). Choudhury et al (2019) have identified 962 butterfly species in Northeast India and stated that the presence of these butterflies would increase their ecotourism activities and provide an alternative source of livelihood for local people.…”

“…Butterflies as a potential nature tourism product constitute a part of so-called entomotourism, or insect-focused tourism (Lemelin, 2007). Although butterfly collection and display constitute one of the oldest and most established recreational activities, the role of butterflies in tourism is very new (Kaufman, 2003;Quinn & Klym, 2009;Genç & Seven, 2020). As an increasingly popular tourism activity, butterfly watching benefits from the current birdwatching industry (Lemelin, 2007).…”

“…To increase their contribution to the regional gross domestic product, there is a need for appropriate ecotourism planning aimed at determining land suitability of national park areas for various ecotourism activities. Previous studies on butterfly watching (Koçak & Seven, 1998;Lemelin, 2007;Karaçetin & Welch, 2011;Genç & Seven, 2020) are conceptual studies on species identification or the importance of butterfly tourism, and there is a serious need for field studies on butterfly watching and tourism activities. Turkey is rich in biodiversity, situated as it is between the major biogeographic regions.…”

This paper intended to clarify the importance of studying Botan Valley's nature with the biodiversity as an ecotourism site and alternative tourism. Butterfly watching is an alternative sort of ecotourism and special interest tourism activity that has grown in popularity in recent years. Turkey hosts various butterfly species, as it does other animal and plant species. Butterfly watching is important for diversification in the sustainable tourism industry. But butterfly watching has yet to be sufficiently investigated. The authors conducted a case study in Botan Valley, Siirt province, located in southeastern Turkey, to address this deficiency. Botan Valley is among the new national parks of Turkey and spans approximately 29 kilometers. The butterfly species in the study region were identified by collecting or photographing samples between the years of 2017 and 2020. A total of 78 species of butterflies belonging to 7 families were determined. Of those species, 63 were first discovered in the valley. The list of identified species and photos of many species are presented in the paper. The most suitable trekking route has been determined and created in the valley where nature lovers can watch and photograph these butterflies on foot. The diversity of butterflies in Botan Valley contributes to the location's potential as a source of wildlife watching tourism opportunities and alternative ecotourism options in Turkey.

Bu araştırmanın amacı, kelebeklerin renk ve desenlerinin insanlardaki estetik ve renk tercihleri üzerindeki etkilerini araştırmaktır. Bununla birlikte, kelebeklerin insanlar üzerinde oluşturduğu etkiler ve hissettirdikleri de çalışma hedefleri kapsamındadır. Bu doğrultuda, farklı renk tonları, şekiller ve kompozisyonlara sahip özgün 10 kelebek fotoğrafı seçilerek araştırma yürütülmüştür. Nitel araştırma yöntemleriyle yarı yapılandırılmış görüşmeler yapılmış ve toplamda 22 katılımcıyla görüşülmüştür. Katılımcılara, kelebek fotoğraflarından hangi türü seçtikleri ve bu tercihi neye göre yaptıkları sorulmuştur. Kelebek tercihleri, renk seçimleri, hissettirdikleri ve kelebek renkleriyle ilgili diğer konular olarak dört kategori belirlenmiştir. Bu bağlamda, katılımcılar tarafından en çok beğenilen kelebek türü Dicle Güzeli olmuştur. Mavi ve şeffaf renkler en çok, kahverengi ve sarı tonları ise daha az tercih edilen renkler arasındır. Ayrıca, renk zıtlığı; ahengi ve hissettirdikleri de dikkat çeken etkenler olmuştur. Kelebeklerin katılımcılara hissettirdikleri kategorisinde en çok tercih edilenler neşe, estetik, canlılık ve ahenk gibi konforlu hislerdir. Kelebek renk seçimine etki eden diğer etmenler incelendiğinde katılımcıların çoğunlukla kanat desenleri ve şekil-zemin ilişkisine göre kelebekleri değerlendirdikleri görülmüştür. Renklerin insanlarda yarattığı etkinin anlaşılması, turizm sektöründe renklerin kullanılması bakımından yararlı fikirler sunulabilir.
