Although robustness of connectivity and modular structures in networks have been attracted much attentions in complex networks, most researches have focused on those two features in Erdos-Renyi random graphs and Scale-Free networks whose degree distributions follow Poisson and power-law, respectively. This paper investigates the effect of modularity on robustness in a modular d-regular graphs. Our results reveal that high modularity reduces the robustness even from the optimal robustness of a random d-regular graph in the pure effect of degree distributions. Moreover, we find that a low modular d-regular graph exhibits small-world property that average path length is O(logN). These results indicate that low modularity on modular structures leads to coexistence of both high robustness and efficiency of paths.
