Patterns and drivers of soil surface‐dwelling Oribatida diversity along an altitudinal gradient on the Changbai Mountain, China [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Distribution patterns of biodiversity and environmental interactions are dominant themes in ecology. In montane ecosystems, biodiversity is closely associated with altitudinal gradients.

Microhabitat Selectivity of Mites (Acari) in a Natural Lowland Beech Forest (Melico-Fagetum) in Wronie Reserve (Poland) [PDF]
InsectsThe European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) is a tree species common throughout Europe, with the eastern boundary of its range extending across Poland. Samples were collected in several microhabitats of beech stands (e.g., leaf litter, rotting wood, moss ...

Invertebrates in the gradient of different age soils under a birdcliff at the Grønfjord Area (Svalbard, Arctic) [PDF]
Кавказский энтомологический бюллетень, 2020 The aim of this study was a preliminary analysis of the distribution of microarthropods (Oribatida, Collembola) and herpetobiontic invertebrates (Aranei, Coleoptera) in soils of different ages under a seabird colony in the vicinity of the Barentsburg ...

Repeated convergent evolution of parthenogenesis in Acariformes (Acari)
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 The existence of old species‐rich parthenogenetic taxa is a conundrum in evolutionary biology. Such taxa point to ancient parthenogenetic radiations resulting in morphologically distinct species.

A Forest Pool as a Habitat Island for Mites in a Limestone Forest in Southern Norway
Diversity, 2021 Forest water bodies, e.g., pools, constitute ‘environmental islands’ within forests, with specific flora and fauna thus contributing considerably to the landscape biodiversity.
