Edaphic and arboricolous oribatid mites (Acari; Oribatida) in tropical environments: Changes in the distribution of higher level taxonomic groups in the communities of species
We analysed the community of oribatid mites in 25 environments of northern Brazil and one in a rain forest in Peru, encompassing fauna sampled on natural and artificial (nylon-mesh bags) substrata, from primary and secondary forests, caatinga, savannahs, flooded forests, bark and epiphytes of trees,...

Acari Invertebrata Oppioidea Oribatida Poronota We analysed the community of oribatid mites in 25 environments of northern Brazil and one in a rain forest in Peru, encompassing fauna sampled on natural and artificial (nylon-mesh bags) substrata, from primary and secondary forests, caatinga, savannahs, flooded forests, bark and epiphytes of trees, and polyculture.

These tendencies should be explored in more detail as more becomes known about the species composition in each environment. 2020-04-24T17:09:54Z 2020-04-24T17:09:54Z 2007 Artigo https://repositorio.inpa.gov.br/handle/1/14832 10.1590/S1519-69842007000300009 en Volume 67, Número 3, Pags. 447-458 Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazil http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/ application/pdf Revista Brasileira de Biologia |
