The soil macrofauna community was assessed along a transect including 16 sampling points from the inside of the forest (80 m from border) out toward the neighboring recently-harvested soybean plantation (up to 70 m from border). Sampling was performed in May 2003 at the Mata dos Godoy State Park and the neighboring Fazenda Santa Helena, using the standard methodology of the Tropical Soil Biology and Fertility Programme (TSBF). Monoliths were hand-sorted for all litter and soil-dwelling taxa (down to a 40 cm depth), and the abundance of a total of 42 taxa assessed.Taxonomic Coverages
