%X Pit-fall trap catches were used to study the recolonization by the coleoptera fauna of Quercus pyrenaica ecosystems disturbed by wildfires. Two close oakwoods in Le&#243;n province of Spain were sampled monthly in 1990, with pit-fall traps, one burnt in June 1986 and in the other August 1989. Carabid genera such as Pterostichus and Anysodactylus increased in the four years post-fire recovered area compared to the recently burnt area and the non-burnt area. The species most affected by the environmental changes were the less generalist species, that occurred less frequently than the more adaptable species.
