Abstract: In order to study the effects of Eupatorium adenophorum Spreng on soil animal communities of different habitats, soil animals of grassland, cedar forest, broad-leaved forest and bamboo forest were investigated and analyzed in Laojunshan National Nature Reserve, Wenshan. The results showed, 11 116 soil animal specimens were collected in various places, belonging to 2 phyla, 6 classes, 14 orders and 41 families. The dominant menoptera groups were Tubificida, Acariformes, Parasiformes, Collembola and Hymenoptera. The values of various diversity indexes of soil animals in different habitats after the invasion of Eupatorium adenophorum Spreng were less than those of non invasion, indicating that the species richness, acquisition probability of the same species, species diversity and evenness of individual number distribution all showed a downward trend after the invasion. Except for broad-leaved forest, some diversity indexes of the other three habitats between invasion and non invasion showed significant differences in the four diversity indexes(P<0.05).
