This study was carried out at the Ecological Experiment Station of Red Soil in Yujiang County (28°15′30″N,116°55′30″E ), Jiangxi Province, China. The area is a typical subtropical monsoon region characterized by a warm-wet spring and a hot-dry summer. Annual temperature averages 17.8℃. Total amounts of precipitation and evaporation are about 1700mm and 1359mm, respectively. Approximately half of the annual precipitation occurs from April to June, while precipitation in the period from July to September is only 19% of the total. Soil in the experimental station is recognized as red soil (Ultisol) derived from Quaternary red clay, where the landscape is characterized by low hill with slope gradient from 5° to 8°. Before experiment, the vegetation and soil had heavily degraded because of man-made disturbance and erosion. Seasonal dynamics of the soil arthropod community was investigated in four kinds of artificially restored woodlands, including deciduous broadleaf woodland (Quercus chenii, Qc), evergreen broadleaf woodland (Schima superba, Ss), coniferous woodland (Pinus massonina, Pm), and coniferous-broadleaf mixed woodland (Schima superba-Pinus massonina, Sm). Our objectives were: (1) to describe the composition, diversity and seasonal fluctuations of soil arthropod communities under different woodland, (2) to determine if restoring measures were reflected in the differentiation of arthropod communities, and (3) to evaluate the suitability of the indices for describing arthropod community and finally screening out the most promising index that can effectively discriminate the community differences. Results from this study showed that both composition and numbers of arthropods varied with vegetation types. Total group numbers were in the order of Qc(21)>Sm(18)>Ss (16)>Pm (15). Total individuals were also highest in Qc for all seasons except for summer. The highest individuals under Pm in summer were attributed to the sharp increase of Collembola. An obvious seasonal fluctuation of arthropod communities was observed. The total group numbers and individuals in spring were higher than that in other seasons. The communities were greatly depressed in the hot-dry summer, while the depression of arthropods was not so serious in winter as occurred in summer. We found that the mites dominated over entire season, making up from 60.2 to 91.7 percent of the total individuals. Although strongly fluctuating with seasons, the percentage of Collembola of total individuals was always greatest in Pm for every season, and it arrived at 66.5 percent in summer. The number of predators (centipedes and spiders) was significantly higher in Qc (P<0.05) than in other woodlands, lowest in Pm, and intermediate in Ss and Sm. Of the indices describing the community diversity, Margalef abundance index (d) and density-group index (DG) could significantly detect the differences among the woodlands (P<0.05). Both d and DG values were in the order of Qc>Sm>Ss>Pm, which was consistent with the tendency of total group numbers. However, there were no significant differences for Shannon-Wienner index (H) and Pielou index (J) among the woodlands. Cluster analysis and canonical discriminant analysis separated the four communities into three groups. The first group included Qc only, which had the greatest diversity. The second group consisted of Ss and Sm, which had intermediate diversity. The Pm occupied the last group, which had the lowest diversity. Overall, the diversity of arthropod communities in different woodland followed the order: Qc>Sm≥Ss>Pm, Sm showing “mixed superiority” to some extent. Both quality and quantity of the litter and the soil hydrothermal condition were the main factors affecting arthropod community development. Principal component analysis, performed on standardized variables using the correlation matrix, demonstrated that most of the indices were highly intercorrelated (P<0.01), suggesting that the above indices contained much redundant information. To identify the sensitivity of all indices, we used the canonical discr
