To know the change and recovery of terrestrial invertebrate community in the tropical rain forest after large fires, the research was done at the Kutai National Park in East Kalimantan (Borneo), Indonesia, in July to August 1986. 2. After consideration of the influence of large fires and the human impact on nature, eleven stations were selected from the unburnt natural forests, unburnt secondary forest, burnt natural forest, burnt secondary forest, and open fileds of Melastoma shrub and Imperata grass. 3. The fauna of macro soil-animals, floor animals and phytal animals were studied at each station. 4. The fauna of macro soil-animals was generally poverty in each station, and according to the impacts of fires and human disturbance, the density, biomass and fauna of macro soil-animals became simpler. 5. No clear relationship was found between the faunas of floor and phytal invertebrates, and the environmental divisions. One of the reasons of these discrepancies in relation to the environmental divisions was due to the difference of number of species and individuals of ants which dominated in the floor and phytal invertebrate communities at each station. 6. It may be said that the terrestrial invertebrate community recovered quickly beyond exceptation in the tropical rain forests after burning.}, pages = {63--81}, title = {Change in the Terrestrial Invertebrate Community Structure in Relation to Large Fires at the Kutai National Park, East Kalimantan (Borneo), Indonesia}, volume = {14}, year = {} }
