Conteúdo: | Welfare it has been an important issue to livestock in the last few years, including the healthiness of animals associated to conditions of the farms. Cattle faeces have a great significance on recontamination of cattle by helminths present on dung (LOBO; VEIGA, 1990). Adoption of silvopastoral systems can reduce heat stress for animals due shade availability (KARKI; GOODMAN, 2010), besides the ambient formed in this systems promote better conditions for improve the number and biodiversity of dung beetle (SOCA et al., 2002). These insects have a great importance for the cattle dung degradation process, considering that some species have greatest capacity due their relative abundance and capacity in remove the biomass, as Dichotomius ssp. and Ontherus spp., genera of Scarabeidae family (CAMPIGLIA, 2002). This work aimed to evaluate diversity and distribution of dung beetle species in an open-pasture and silvopastoral system with beef cattle.
