Wildfires are one of the most important disturbances that worry the society, efect the forests that everyday where more common. This had generated that the last years so much progress has been made in the study of forest management after a wildfire and the effects that this has to the biodiversity and the structure of de comunities of the forests. Ants are a group of species with an important ecological function in the different ecosystems and they can be bioindicators of disturbances and effects that had happened in the forests. So in this study we use ants, diversity and the structure of comunities to evaluate the impacts of the forest management. The sampling was done in Blanes in a wildfire of summer 2016 and the salvage logging during the spring of 2017, where we took samples of the ants and we do the statics analysis. This is taken about see the diferent functional groups of the species that we have in the sampling, the position in the food web, the abundance and the species richness. The sampling has been done with different treatments and microhabitats in the forest. After the analysis, we don’t see importants diferences between the diferent tractments surely because the management was done a little bit time after the sampling
