In order to evaluate the scale of spatial patterns in edaphic mesofauna in a pasture-forest gradient, a collection of soil samples was obtained from a transect, followed by faunal extraction, counting and sorting. Only Sternorrhyncha (except Coccidae) and Coccidae geostatistical analysis showed spatial dependence within the scale 25-500 cm. Results suggest a revision of the current methods of soilfauna sampling, in which sampling intensity and intervals could be optimized for each taxon.
