The purpose of this study was to determine whether altitude has a measurable effect on coleopteran community diversity. Data for this analysis were collected along the Rio San Luis in Monteverde, Costa Rica. It was found that the community at lower elevations (710-740 m) had significantly higher diversity (H’ = 2.45) than the community at higher elevations (1170-1220 m) (H’ = 2.01). This difference is most likely caused by changes in microhabitat but could also be a result of variation within community sampling. El propósito de este estudio fue determinar si la altitud tiene un efecto mensurable en la diversidad de la comunidad de coleópteros. Los datos para este análisis se colectaron cerca del río San Luis en Monteverde, Costa Rica. Se...
