Abstract: By the methods of handsorting, Tullgrens, the soil arthropod composition structure in the wetland restored for a year in Westzhuojiaying of Beijing was investigated, also compared with the wasteland and surrounding apricot forest. A total of 3 226 soil animals in 39 groups belonging to 4 classes, 19 orders, 36 families were collected. Compared with the wasteland, the number of individuals and groups, and the diversity of the soil arthropods in restored wetland were significantly (p＜005) increased, while with the surrounding apricot forest not significantly different. The community structure of soil arthropod had no significant difference (p＞005) among the areas of Amorpha fruticosa, Salix saposhnikovii, Morus mongolica, and Hippophae rhamnoides, also no significant difference (p＞005) among the different soil layers.The results showed that wetland restoration truly achieved some effects, but it was still in the early stages of recovery due to short restoration time.
