%X The significances of traditional culture and indigenous knowledge in biodiversity conservation and naturel management have been widely recognized throughout the world and,therefore,to conserve cultural diversity has been taken as one of the effective approaches to biodiversity conservation.China is a typical nation with multiple minorities and plentiful minority cultures which are important components of so-called natural and cultural heritage.Taboo,one of the most disputed and complex socio-cultural phenomena,was formed during the long historical natural adaptation and social intercommunication.Although most taboos have been changing or even disappeared along with social and economic development,some also play an important role in modern times.More importantly,compared to laws,rules or legislations,some taboos are more easily accepted by local people in some areas.In this paper,based on the review of many kinds of literatures and field survey in Dong Minority located in Congjiang County of Guizhou Province,the background of taboo formation was analyzed,some typical taboos related to rice-planting such as god and ghost worship,ancestor worship,and water worship,fish worship,frog worship,snake worship and so on,and their significance were discussed from the ecological angle,and the positive effects of traditional cultures including taboo in ecological conservation and regional sustainable development were illustrated.
