%X a survey of the dung beetle (scarabaeinae) fauna of four types of dry habitats is shown; the collect method was transects of pitfall fatten with human excrement, a total of 26 species and 12 genera were found (beta diversity). the highest diversity (alpha diversity) is present in the dry forest with the lower impact of human activity (18 species) while the lowest diversity (7 species) is found in the patches of dry forest located in urban zones. the species number is higher than the registered to other dry forest of the country, and an elevated species turnover compared with other studies was detected.
