Termite genus diversity, abundance and biomass all were highest in the primary forest. The values in the secondary forest were half those of the primary forest, and they were lowest in the plantation systems, indicating that the latter sites may suffer from functional constraints concerning the process of organic residue decomposition. aagroforestry abiomass adegradation aforest litter amultiple cropping aorganic matter asoil fauna aAgrossilvicultura aBiomassa aCultivo Multiplo aCupim de Montículo aDecomposição aFauna Edáfica aFloresta Tropical Úmida aIsoptera aMatéria Orgânica aSerapilheira aTermitidae aAmazonas aBrasil aManaus aTropical rain forest1 aGOMES, E.1 aGARCIA, M.
