Oribatid mite communities (Acari: Oribatida) in different habitats of the Polistovsky Nature Reserve (Pskov Region, Russia)
The fauna and community structure of oribatid mites (Acari: Oribatida) in the Pskov Region of Russia is not yet comprehensively studied. Until now not much attention has been paid to soil communities of bogs and open landscapes of this area. The aim of this study was to compare the community composition of oribatid mites in different habitats in the environs of the Polistovsky National Nature R...
متن کاملDirect measurements of temperature and humidity in dust mite microhabitats.
BACKGROUND Up to 70% of atopic asthmatics have a positive skin test to the dust mite allergen Der p 1. Reduction of dust mite numbers by lowering room humidity control is one suggested technique for reducing dust mite allergen levels to clinically acceptable levels. Trials of this technique in temperate climates have reported mixed results. It has been speculated that one reason for this is tha...
متن کاملThe oribatid mite genus Benoibates (Acari, Oribatida, Oripodidae)
Two species of oribatid mites of the genus Benoibates (Oribatida, Oripodidae), i.e., Benoibatesbolivianus Balogh & Mahunka, 1969(a) and Benoibatesminimus Mahunka, 1985, are recorded for the first time in Costa Rica. Both are redescribed in details, using drawings, images and SEM micrographs, on the basis of Costa Rican specimens. An identification key to the known species of Benoibates is given.
متن کاملOribatid mite (Arachnida: Oribatida) coenoses from SW Sardinia*
Oribatid mite communities were investigated at five sites in SW Sardinia (Carbonia-Iglesias and Medio Campidano provinces) in three representative habitat types: holm oak (Quercus ilex) forest, cork oak (Quercus suber) forest and pineland (Pinus radiata and P. pinaster). A total of 1,180 oribatid mite specimens, belonging to 67 different species, were extracted from soil samples. Significant di...
متن کاملDiversity and seasonal fluctuation of predominant microbial communities in Bhitarkanika, a tropical mangrove ecosystem in India.
Different groups of microorganisms are present in mangrove areas, and they perform complex interactions for nutrient and ecological balances. Since little is known about microbial populations in mangroves, this study analyzed the microbial community structure and function in relation to soil physico-chemical properties in Bhitarkanika, a tropical mangrove ecosystem in India. Spatial and seasona...
