Soil macrofauna communities were evaluated in September 2016 in an experiment evaluating integrated agricultural production systems located at the Canguiri Farm of the Federal University of Paraná in Pinhais, Paraná, Brazil. Samples were taken in four land use systems: 1) an agrosilvopastoral system with rows of Eucalyptus benthamii and maize cropping in the summer and black oats in the winter, followed by three years of Panicum maximum pasture grasses in the interrow; 2) an agropastoral system with maize cropping in the summer and black oats in the winter, followed by three years of Panicum maximum pasture grasses in the interrow; 3) a permanent pasture Panicum maximum; and 4) annual cropping of maize in the summer and black oats in the winter. Each of these systems was replicated 3 times, and three samples were taken in each plot. Samples were taken using the standard methodology of the Tropical Soil Biology and Fertility Programme (TSBF), where soil (down to 20 cm depth) and litter fauna were hand-sorted from monoliths of 25x25 cm, and the abundance of a total of 42 taxa was assessed.Taxonomic Coverages
