為建立玉山國家公園新康區之動物相的基本資料，在區內選定佳心、黃麻、瓦拉米、多美麗及大分等五個固定調查站，於民國79年7月至80年6月至調查區從事6次調查。調查方式採用常速穿越調查、慢速穿越調查及小型哺乳類捕捉調查。其發現16種756隻次哺乳類，66種2403隻次鳥類，10種24隻次爬蟲類，7種兩棲類及109種1652隻次蝴蝶類。就各類特有種及亞種之比例而言，哺乳類最高，鳥類次之，蝴蝶類最低。就各類動物中重要應加強保育之種類有百步蛇、朱鸝、林雕、帝雉、藍腹鷴、自喉笑鶇、台灣黑熊及其他大型哺乳類等。各類動物相在五個調查站間相對豐度比較結果如下:佳心之蝴蝶資源最豐富，無論種數或隻次皆最高。黃麻與瓦拉米之鳥類數量或種數最多。多美麗地區海拔最高，擁有高海拔之鳥類或哺乳類，而爬蟲類、兩棲類及蝶類則最少。大分地區位處最深入偏僻之地，哺乳動物資源異常豐富，尤以上羌、長鬃山羊及水鹿等大型草食性動物為多，是一個良好的草食性哺乳類研究地點。以Cluter Analysis分析比較這五個調查站之動物群聚，發現不同動物類之群聚關係結果不盡相同，整體而言，佳心、黃麻與瓦拉米較為相似(其間又以黃麻一瓦拉米之群聚關係最近)，而多美麗與大分較為相似。

　　　　　In order to establish the baseline data for the fauna at Hsin-kang district,Yu-shan National Park, six surveys were executed at five stations during the periodof July 1990 to June 1991. Three methods were used: transect with normal walking speed,transect with slow walking speed, and trapping of small mammals. In sum,thefauna records included 16 species (756 counts) of mammals, 66 species (2403 counts)of birds, 10species (24 counts) of reptiles,7species of amphibians and 109 species(1652 counts) of butterflies. Comparing the percentage of endemic species or subspecies from each taxon, the highest ratio occured in the taxon of mammals and birds.The lowest ratio occured in butterflies. Among all the fauna, the following speciesare in need of conservation: Agikistrodonacutus, Oriolus trailli, Ictinaetus malayensis, Syrrnaticus mikado, Lophura swinhoii, Garrulax albogularis, and other largemammals. Comparing the relative abundance of each taxon at five stations, the mostabundant and representative resource is the butterfly at Jia-Hsin, and the bird atHwang-Ma and Wa-La-Mee. Because of its higher location, Do-Mei-Lee stationcontains some special bird and mammal species from higher elevations. Da-Fen areais the most isolated area and contains a very abundant mammal resource especiallyfor large herbivores, and it may be a good area for studying herbivorous mammals.Through cluster analysis, the fauna communities at these five stations could belumped into two major groups, i.e. the three eastern stations.Jia-Hsin, Hwang-Ma,and Ma-La-Mee form one group, while the other two stations. Do-Mei-Lee and Da-Fen,form the other group. Within the first major group, the fauna of Hwang-Ma is more similar to the western Wa-La-Mee than eastern Jia-Hsin.
