Abstract
Surface fires cause loss of vegetation that covers the soil, litter layer and top layer, which is the main part of the resources and habitat soil organisms, one of which is collembola. The aim of the study was to determine the comparability of the diversity and abundance of Collembola community in post fire land, transitional land and control land in Baluran National Park Situbondo. Sampling method with randomized group design was done by line transect sampling, total 120 plots in three different locations that are post fire land, transitional land and control land and the transect based on altitude. Collembola extraction was done by Eco 12 modification barless-tullgren extraction tool. The Results of this study show that a total of 547 individuals were included 9 species Collembola. Important value index species Paralobella cassagnau dominated on both post fire land and control land. Lepidocyrtus bourlet is a species that dominated in transitional land. The conclusion of this study is differences land and elevation take affect of the important value index, biodiversity index (H), eveness index (E), and richness index (R), this can occur because differences altitude allowed differences collembola composition and fires take affect the presence of collembola
