In 2016, day butterflies were tracked in order to establish the importance of 33 edge effects (EB) formed by three traditional agroforestry systems immersed in a fragmented mesophilic forest in Xochitla, Mixtla de Altamirano, Veracruz. Systematic sampling and counting in points with fixed radius were established: the analyzes were carried out by: A) families with EB; B) subfamilies with EB; C) families by sampling; and D) subfamilies by sampling. Wealth and relative abundance were assessed using Jacknife1 and diversity with Shannon-Wiener. Kruskal-Wallis for the three indices, Cluster (wealth and abundance) and c2 (abundance). Jacknife1 showed values: 70.62; 47.6; 96.66, 80.27%. There were no differences: F= 16, p= 0.724; F= 9, p= 0.4966; F= 20, p= 0.6584; F= 13, p= 0.5953. Cluster exhibited 3 to 5 amalgamations. The IAR presented minimum-maximum average values of 0.001-0.578. There were no discrepancies: F= 26, p= 0.5642; F= 20, p= 0.6271; F= 22, p= 0.8414; F= 30, p= 0.4376. Cluster exhibited 3 to 5 amalgamations. c2 manifested values: p= 0.5396, p= 0.7577, p= 0.5708, p= 0.3083. Shannon-Wiener exhibited values: H’= 1.38; H’= 2.4; H’= 1.49; H’= 2.49. In two cases there were no differences: F= 3, p= 0.2839; F= 3, p= 0.2839; however, in two if: F= 5, p= <0.0003; F= 11, p= <0.0015. Results are shown, respectively for A, B, C, D. The parameters under study of diurnal butterflies in the considered EB were estimated-compared, this lays the basis for future research of Lepidopterofauna in agroforestry and EB systems for this particular region from Veracruz.
