Oribatid mites are ancient, minute arthropods that live in soil, plant litter, mosses and lichens, and on trees and shrubs. Prior to the production of this catalogue, Australian Oribatid mites had been poorly documented. This catalogue summarises our knowledge of the fauna of Australian Oribatid mites, including many new records of species and genera ...

The occurrence of soil fauna populations increases nutrient release by fragmentation of litter, grazing of microflora and improvement of soil structure. In floodplain forests of Central Amazonia, Acari represent up to 64% of the arthropod fauna in the litter and upper soil layers (0–3.5 cm; Table 16.2) and up to 19% of the monthly catches on tree ...

Checklist of Oribatid mites (Acari: Oribatida) of Ecuador
Zootaxa, 2022The present checklist of the oribatid mites compiles all known published records of Ecuador with 479 species belonging to 232 genera and 89 families; 180 of these species were described from Ecuador. Oribatid mites were found in 15 of the 24 provinces that conform the Ecuadorian territory. In the provinces of Zamora Chinchipe, Galápagos, Loja, Cotopaxi,

Biogeography of oribatid mites (Acari)
Soil is a complex micro-landscape that provides a multitude of unique habitats supporting soil-dwelling life-forms. Though, over the past decades, there has been an increasing awareness of the importance of soil biodiversity and associated ecosystem functions, however, soil biodiversity is still a “mysterious black box” waitting for ecologist to find ...Pan, Xue +5 more

The saltatory capacity of an oribatid mite
1991Since the first description of the oribatid genus, Zetorchestes (Berlese, 1883), it has been known that its members are able to jump. Hitherto, however, the jumping ability of these mites with a length of about 0.5 mm has not been investigated. The present chapter refers to laboratory experiments using Z.

Oribatid mites: prospects for their use in ecotoxicology
Experimental & Applied Acarology, 1995Oribatid mites are a group of arthropods that have had remarkable evolutionary success with regard to species richness, variety of habitats colonized, life-cycle variation and reporductive patterns. The aim of this paper is to review some of the important features of Oribatida in relation to the possible use of these animals in ecotoxicological ...
