The main objective of this article was the assessment of the impact of damage caused to the MIOMBO clear forest on the diversity of litter fauna. In order to lead to results it was specially selected three different stations (the MIOMBO clear forest, the shrub savannah and the farmed field) those were characterized by the pH, the water content and the organic matter concentration of their soil. The litter fauna species listed on the inventory of the Miombo forest were compared in quality and quantity to those listed in shrub savannah and the land under farming after the calculation of diversity indications.
So it was brought out that the acidity and the organic matter concentration were more considerable in the soil of the forest than the shrub savannah and the land under farming. The same goes for the litter fauna that was more abundant and diversified in the forest (to wit the relative abundance of 59, 8%) than the land under farming that has registered 30, 4% of all listed species and the shrub savannah with 9, 8% only. These results constitute the evidence that damages caused to the MIOMBO clear forest has negative actions on the abundance and diversity of the litter fauna.
