During this study 13 species of seven genera belong to two families Ascidae and Melicharidae were collected and identified. Four species namely Asca aphidioides (LINNAEUS), Zerconopsis michaeli EVANS & HYATT, Antennoseius (Antennoseius) bacatus ATHIAS-HENRIOT from family Ascidae and Proctolaelaps scolyti EVANS from family Melicharidae are new records for the mites fauna of Guilan Province. Proctolaelaps fiseri SAMŠIŇÁK (Melicharidae) and Zerconopsis remiger (KRAMER) (Ascidae) are new for Iran mites fauna. Expanded descriptions including illustrations of the adult female of Proctolaelaps fiseri and Zerconopsis remiger, respectively are provided based on the Iranian material. K e y w o r d s : Fauna, Ascoidea, Mesostigmata, New records, Iran. Introduction The superfamily Ascoidea is richly represented in tropical, temperate, and arctic alpine regions, where many of its members are free-living predators of nematodes and micro- arthropods in soil or humus and suspended arboreal litter habitats. -

Prey preferences and feeding-related behaviour of a Central European species of Scydmaeninae, Euconnus pubicollis, were studied under laboratory conditions. Results of prey choice experiments involving 50 species of mites belonging to 24 families of Oribatida and one family of Uropodina demonstrated that beetles feed mostly on ptyctimous Phthiracaridae (over 90% of prey) and only occasionally on Achipteriidae, Chamobatidae, Steganacaridae, Oribatellidae, Ceratozetidae, Euphthiracaridae and Galumni- dae. The average number of mites consumed per beetle per day was 0.27 ± 0.07, and the entire feeding process took 2.15–33.7 h and showed a clear linear relationship with prey body length. Observations revealed a previously unknown mechanism for capturing prey in Scydmaeninae in which a droplet of liquid that exudes from the mouth onto the dorsal surface of the predator’s mouthparts adheres to the mite’s cuticle. Morphological adaptations associated with this strategy include the flattened distal parts of the maxillae, whereas the mandibles play a minor role in capturing prey. -

THE EFFECTS OF UREA ON ACARINA AND OTHER ARI'HROPODS IN QUEBEC BLACK SPRUCE (Picea mariana Mill) HUMUS by Valerie Behan A thesis submitted to the Fa culty of Graduate Studies and Research in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Department of Entomology, Macdonald ~pus of McGill University, Montreal, Quebec. June 1972 @ Valerie Behan 1973 ABSTRACT M.Sc. Valerie Behan Entomology THE EFFECTS OF UREA ON ACARINA AND OTHER ARTHROPODS IN QUEBEC BLACK SPRUCE (Picea mariana Mill) HUMUS Low productivity of temperate forest soils presents a Challenge to those exploiting them for economic gain. Pro- ductivity can be increased by the application of fertilizers. The present study examines the effects of added nitrogen on the arthropods of Black spruce humus. Humus samples were taken monthly throughout the summer of 1971 from plots whiCh had been fertilized with urea in early June, 1971. The extracted fauna was examined qualita- tively and quantitatively. Ninety-two species of Acarina were recorded. Application of urea causes an initial reduction in arthropod density, followed by a rapid increase. The arthro- pods also responded by moving downwards after urea was applied. The appearance of Iphidozercon sp. in the treated plots com- prised the only major Change in species composition. The implications of the above Changes are discussed in relation to the role of soil arthropods in temperate conifer- ous forest soils. RESUME M.Sc.

The Maturity Index Applied to Soil Gamasine Mites from Five Natural
Applied Soil Ecology 34 (2006) 1–9 www.elsevier.com/locate/apsoil The maturity index applied to soil gamasine mites from five natural forests in Austria Tamara Cˇ oja *, Alexander Bruckner Institute of Zoology, Department of Integrative Biology, University of Natural Resources and Applied Life Sciences, Gregor-Mendel-Strasse 33, 1180 Vienna, Austria Received 27 June 2005; received in revised form 9 January 2006; accepted 16 January 2006 Abstract In this study, we tested the performance of the gamasine mites maturity index of (Ruf, A., 1998. A maturity index for gamasid soil mites (Mesostigmata: Gamsina) as an indicator of environmental impacts of pollution on forest soils. Appl. Soil Ecol. 9, 447– 452) in five natural forest reserves in eastern Austria. These sites were assumed to be stable and undisturbed reference habitats. The maturity indices of the gamasine communities were near their maximum in the investigated stands, and thus performed well towards the ‘‘high end’’ of the total range of the index. An occasionally inundated floodplain forest yielded much lower values. However, the correlation of the index with humus type, as proposed by Ruf et al. (Ruf, A., Beck, L., Dreher, P., Hund-Rienke, K., Ro¨mbke, J., Spelda, J., 2003. A biological classification concept for the assessment of soil quality: ‘‘biological soil classification scheme’’ (BBSK). Agric. Ecosyst. Environ. 98, 263–271) for managed forests, was not found. This indicates that the humus form is not a good predictor of the index over its entire range and is inappropriate to assess the fit of test communities. Fourteen percent of the species in this study were omitted from index calculation because adequate data for their families are lacking. -

GWIAZDOWICZ Poznań University of Life Sciences, Department of Forest Protection, Wojska Polskiego 28, 60-637 Poznań, Poland; e-mail: [email protected] (Received on 31 March 2009, Accepted on 21 July 2009) Abstract: The species composition of mesostigmatid mites in the soil and leaf litter was studied on the Szczeliniec Wielki plateau, which is spatially isolated from similar rocky habitats. A total of 1080 soil samples were taken from June 2004 to September 2005. The samples, including the organic horizon from the herb layer and litter from rock cracks, were collected using steel cylinders (area 40 cm2, depth 0–10 cm). They were generally dominated by Gamasellus montanus, Veigaia nemorensis, and Lepto- gamasus cristulifer. Rhodacaridae, Parasitidae and Veigaiidae were the most numerously represented families as regards to individuals. Among the 55 recorded mesostigmatid species, 13 species were new to the fauna of the Stołowe National Park. Thus the soil mesostigmatid fauna of the Szczeliniec Wielki plateau is generally poor and at an early stage of succession. Keywords: mites, Acari, Mesostigmata, Stołowe Mountains National Park INTRODUCTION Biodiversity is usually described as species richness of a geographic area, with some reference to time. The diversity of plants and animals can be reduced by habitat fragmentation and spatial isolation. Moreover, spatial isolation and habitat fragmen- tation can affect ecosystem functioning (Schneider et al.
