Seasonal change of oribatid mite communities (Acari, Oribatida) in three different types of microhabitats in an oak forest [PDF]
Oribatid mites are one of the most abundant groups of the ground-dwelling mesofauna. They can be found in almost every terrestrial habitat all over the world and they are characterized by great species richness and great number of individuals. In spite

Diversity of Oribatids (Acari) at Different Land Use Types in Mentebah, Kapuas Hulu, West Kalimantan [PDF]
Kalimantan forests are mostly managed by human. Deforestation will affect the ecosystem and species inside. Oribatids are the most abundant soil mesofauna. They have an important role in decomposition of organic matter in the soil.
