Compared to shade coffee plantations, sun-grown coffee is not considered very biodiversity-friendly, but little is known about how the management practices for this crop and landscape characteristics affect species diversity. Some predatory staphylinids (rove beetles) are important biological control agents in many agricultural systems, but have not received much attention in tropical agroecosystems or in coffee plantations. After collecting 2074 individuals belonging to 126 species of staphylinid collected from 27 sampling sites in a region dominated by sun-grown coffee in the Colombian Andes, we evaluated how local and landscape heterogeneity affect the diversity, abundance and composition of staphylinids. We found that both local and landscape variables had effects in different directions and of different magnitudes depending on the community attribute evaluated. At the local scale, rove beetle diversity increased with the density of herbaceous plants and coffee plant cover. At the landscape scale, species richness decreased with increasing forest cover, while the number of forest patches had a positive effect. We also found a high degree of species turnover within and between coffee plantations, and this was explained by farmland habitat structural differences between the coffee plantations and also the characteristics of the surrounding landscape. Our results indicate that the Andean sun-grown coffee plantations still host diverse and taxonomically dissimilar staphylinid communities. Therefore, properly managed local vegetation structure and the preservation of forest remnants on the landscape contribute to maintaining high diversity in this coffee production system. Promoting biodiversity conservation and the provision of ecosystem services by agroecosystems—even in intense production systems—requires that environmental heterogeneity on several scales be taken into account.

与遮荫咖啡种植园相比，阳光种植的咖啡不被认为对生物多样性非常友好，但人们对这种作物和景观特征的管理实践如何影响物种多样性知之甚少。一些掠食性葡萄球菌（罗夫甲虫）是许多农业系统中重要的生物控制剂，但在热带农业生态系统或咖啡种植园中并未受到太多关注。在从哥伦比亚安第斯山脉以阳光种植的咖啡为主的地区的 27 个采样点收集了属于 126 种葡萄碱的 2074 个个体后，我们评估了当地和景观的异质性如何影响葡萄碱的多样性、丰度和组成。我们发现，根据评估的社区属性，局部变量和景观变量在不同方向和不同幅度上都有影响。在局部尺度上，漫游甲虫的多样性随着草本植物和咖啡植物覆盖的密度而增加。在景观尺度上，物种丰富度随着森林覆盖率的增加而下降，而森林斑块的数量有正向影响。我们还在咖啡种植园内和咖啡种植园之间发现了高度的物种更替，这可以通过咖啡种植园之间的农田栖息地结构差异以及周围景观的特征来解释。我们的研究结果表明，安第斯阳光种植的咖啡种植园仍然拥有多样化且分类学上不同的葡萄胺类群落。所以，妥善管理当地植被结构和保护景观上的森林遗迹有助于保持这个咖啡生产系统的高度多样性。促进生物多样性保护和农业生态系统提供生态系统服务——即使是在密集的生产系统中——也需要考虑多个尺度的环境异质性。
