AB - This study applied a multidisciplinary approach integrating Focus Group Interviews (FGI)with beekeepers, rapid ecosystem services assessment, and GIS-based spatial analysis to investigatenative honeybee (Apis cerana Fabricius, 1793) habitats in Seocheon-gun, Chungcheongnam-do,Republic of Korea. Land cover characteristics within 3km buffer zones around five apiaries wereanalyzed, and 17 ecosystem service indicators reconstructed from the RAWES framework wereevaluated using a Likert scale survey. The results showed that water supply, landscape value,pollination services, and habitat provision were rated highest in importance, in that order. Threatassessments for pollination services identified invasive species (Asian yellow-legged hornet, sacbrood virus), development pressure, and environmental pollution as primary perceived stressors. The criticalshortage of spring nectarresources and quality nectar plants was confirmed. Differences in ecosystemservice perception according to beekeeping experience were observed, indicating complex interactionsbetween individual experience and local ecological conditions. Overall, this research provides anempirical and science-based foundation for developing habitat management strategies and policiesframeworks to support the conservation of A.cerana.
