APPLICATION OF ORIBATID MITES AS INDICATORS (REVIEW)

open access: yesApplied Ecology and Environmental Research, 2009
This review discusses the connection between quantitative changes of environmental factors and oribatid communities. With the overview of available studies, it can be clearly explored how various characteristics of Oribatid communities are modified due to changes in moisture, temperature, heavy metal concentration, organic matter content and level of ...

Niche dimensions in soil oribatid mite community assembly under native and introduced tree species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Forest soils are a critical component of terrestrial ecosystems and host a large number of animal decomposer species. One diverse and abundant decomposer taxon is oribatid mites (Acari: Oribatida), whose species composition varies with forest type and ...
