Plant roots fuel tropical soil animal communities
Ecology Letters, Volume 26, Issue 5, Page 742-753, May 2023., 2023 Our study quantifies the importance of litter vs. living root resources for soil animals across 30 taxonomic groups after conversion of rainforest into monoculture plantations. The results suggest that roots are of similar importance to litter for the soil animal food web, with root trenching effects being stronger in soil than in litter and litter ...

The labidostommatid palpus: a morphological enigma (Acariformes: Prostigmata)
Acarologia, 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.
