Coleoptera is the most diverse group of insect with important roles in ecosystem and tremendous economic importance especially in oil palm industry. A study of the diversity and abundance of soil beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) on different type of soil in the Endau-Rompin Plantation, Pahang was conducted started in 2009 until 2012. The study aims to determine the diversity and abundance of soil beetle in Endau-Rompin Plantation, Pahang and to provide an inventory of soil beetle in the Endau-Rompin Plantation, Pahang. Samples were collected by using transects and light traps (UV). A total of 657 individuals Carabidae (soil beetles) were successfully recorded for the results of this study. There were five subfamilies namely Harpalinae (75.64%), Trechinae (14.46%), Scaritinae (8.37%), Cicindelinae (1.38%) and Lebiinae (0.15%) which had been recorded. The Shannon-Wiener Diversity Index (H ') shows the highest variability in the shallow peat (H�: 1.495) and the lowest is in the deep peat (H�:0.904). The study of the three soil types did not affect the species numbers present in the study indicated with no significant difference (p >0.05). The probability of overlapping species is based on the presence and absence of Carabidae (soil bettles) species at the study site and is divided into four groups. � 2019, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Press.
