Se estimó la diversidad y fluctuación anual de cerambícidos asociados al borde e interior de una selva tropical. La captura de insectos se realizó con trampas de intercepción cebadas con alcohol etílico y luz ultravioleta como atrayente. Se recolectaron 295 especímenes de tres subfamilias, pertenecientes a 56 especies de 38 géneros.
