<![CDATA[This research is motivated by the lack of information regarding the structure of macrofauna communities in the Kemiri Forest, Sumber Agung, which plays a crucial role as an indicator of ecosystem health. Furthermore, the potential for environmental disturbances such as habitat destruction due to human activities, changes in vegetation cover, and natural factors such as erosion and microclimate change are also important reasons for conducting this research. This study aims to determine the species richness, diversity, and evenness index of macrofauna species using the line transect method and pitfall traps. Sampling was conducted at three points with different habitat characteristics: the forest edge, the transition zone, and the central area of the forest. The results showed that the line transect method recorded 15 species, while the pitfall trap method recorded 13 species. The species richness index values were 5,049 (line transect) and 3,508 (pitfall trap), both of which are in the moderate category. The species diversity index was 2,685 and 2,315, respectively, which also indicates a moderate level of diversity. The species evenness values were high, at 0.991 and 0.902, indicating no significant species dominance. This finding indicates that the macrofauna community is relatively stable, although potentially affected by environmental disturbances. This research is expected to provide a basis for monitoring ecosystem quality and forest conservation efforts.]]>
