Abstract
Carabidae faunal composition in Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta was studied along Minca-Cerro Kennedy altitudinal gradient from 700 to 2620 m, by two different pitfall trap methods and by manual collection of samples in forests, coffee and pine plantations. Results show differences in number of pitfall traps to collect carabid fauna in each sample station, differences in carabid composition and distribution along the altitudinal gradient, and differences in zones by abundance, brachiptery, and endemisms. Three new records were registered for Colombian carabid fauna.
