Quantitative assessment of the dispersal of soil‐dwelling oribatid mites via rodents in restored heathlands

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Heathland restoration using topsoil removal provides an ideal scenario to study colonization processes of soil fauna. We quantitatively assessed passive dispersal of oribatid mites via phoresy using small rodents and compared it to other reported host groups.

Freshwater macroinvertebrate traits assessment as complementary to taxonomic information for mining impact detection in the northern Peruvian Andes

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 28, Issue 8, Page 1582-1596, August 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim We studied the distribution of freshwater macroinvertebrate taxa and traits to distinguish ecological gradients among the mining‐controlled and natural headwaters, and rural and urban economic activity influences. Location In 2016’s dry season, macroinvertebrate samples were collected at 40 locations in the Mashcon watershed, northern ...

Detangling ecosystem services: Open‐field manipulation of soil‐dwelling microarthropods provides new opportunities to investigate their effects on nitrogen cycling

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 7, July 2022., 2022
An open‐field mesocosm was developed to study the role of soil‐dwelling microarthropods in nitrogen cycling. The mesocosms included spring wheat or mixed grass, and a lysimeter collected percolated soil water underneath the systems. We found differences in the leached ammonium and nitrate ion concentrations among mesocosms including higher or lower ...

The labidostommatid palpus: a morphological enigma (Acariformes: Prostigmata)

open access: yesAcarologia, 2015
Hypotheses are reviewed concerning which segments of the primitively five-segmented palpus are coalesced to form the simple, linear, four-segmented form characteristic of labidostommatid mites. Among alternatives, those of either a femurogenu or a tibiotarsus are not based on convincing evidence.
