Shrnutí:We live in a planet full of species that interact with each other and with the environment. Dung beetles (Coleoptera) was used to determine the impact that the destruction of forests has on insect communities. This research was conducted in Cajanuma (Podocarpus National Park) the sampling was established in two types of forest: No Disturbed Forest and Disturbed Forest. It was carried out from July to December 2014 and it had a monthly sampling using pit-fall traps with 20 points in each type of forest. Scarabaeidae and Carabidae, six genera and 13 species: a total of 284 individuals, which belong to two families were captured. Of these the Disturbed Forest 231 individuals were found and the non Disturbed Forest 53 individuals were found. In addition it was determined that forest type significantly influences to Dichotomius cotopaxi, Homocopris buckleyi and Carabidae sp2. Finally, the environmental factor that affected the community of Coleoptera was the temperature, changing both wealth and abundance of species. It was determined that the destruction of forests impacts communities dung.
