Abstract

A survey of hysterid species was made at Crisdan farm, São João da Boa Vista - SP, weekly between January and February 2001, using two collection methods, soil traps and Berlese funnel. The hysterid species found were identified as: Carcinops troglodytes, Hololepta quadridentata and Eupilotus modestus. Among them, E. modestus and Carcinops troglodytes accounted for 98.1% of hysteria, and predominated in the four collections. The index of association between the two species was one (100% association).
