In an area with the differentiated extend of revitalization liming (1986-2002), soil fauna (Elateridae, Staphylinidae, Diplura, Protura) determined through the method of tullgrens (2005) was confronted with the actual soil chemistry (pH, soil exchange sorption, the degree of the sorption complex saturation by basic cations, C/N ratio, available nutrients P, Mg, K and Ca). Athous subfuscus and Dalopius marginatus accepted the broad extent of soil pH (2.8-6.15). The abundance of Elateridae and Protura was affected by soil chemistry and the content of nutrient elements while Staphylinidae and Diplura were without any response. Canonical analysis shows the complexity of applied factors whereas the environment showed a limited impact on the abundance of monitored fauna.
