The study was carried out in two municipalities of the Nicaragua-Honduras Sentinel Landscape. Tree census and semi structure interviews were carried out in 45 farms of La Dalia and 45 farms of Waslala municipalities. In each farm, five productive land uses were considered: cocoa plantation, coffee plantation, pastures, basic grains and home gardens. All trees ≥ of 10 cm of diameter at breast height (dbh) were censed (but fruit trees with ≥5 cm of dbh), and their common and scientific names, dap, commercial height, and the diameter at the commercial height were recorded.

Estos beneficios se alcanzan cuando las recomendaciones agroforestales responden a las condiciones particulares de la finca, de cada sistema de produccion y de cada productor. La metodologia de Diagnostico y Diseno agroforestal (D&D) es una herramienta valiosa para interpretar y manejar los sistemas agroforestales de una finca.

Dung beetles were collected between April and June 2002, in 25 farms (five per habitat). In each farm, a matrix of 25 pig dung-baited pitfall traps (five parallel transects, each 40 m long, with five traps per transect) was sampled. A total of 36 dung beetle species were collected. The most abundant species was Onthophagus acuminatus (1723 individuals) and the rarest was Canthon hartmanni (one individual). There were differences between habitats in the number of genus and species, but not in the abundance, Berger-Parker's dominance index and the diversity or equity indexes. The number of plant species and the average tree dbh were the only habitat variables that had significant correlation with dung beetle species richness (r 2 =0.47; p =0.09); none of the habitat variables had a significant correlation with dung beetle abundance. The results suggest that the cacao systems in Talamanca could harbor comparable dung beetle diversity to the surrounding forests.

The underlying database is being assembled as part of the [PREDICTS project](http://www.predicts.org.uk) - Projecting Responses of Ecological Diversity In Changing Terrestrial Systems. A complete description of the data is given in [http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/ece3.1303](http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/ece3.1303).
