The structure of oribatid mite communities (Acari, Oribatida): patterns, mechanisms and implications for future research
TLDR
This forum aims to stimulate discussion and debate, particularly by presenting new ideas and by suggesting alternative interpretations to the more formal research papers published in ECOGRAPHY and elsewhere.

The underestimated importance of belowground carbon input for forest soil animal food webs.
TLDR
In plots with only ( 13)C-labelled leaf litter only three taxa, including, e.g. juvenile Glomeris spp.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the sexual oribatid mite Steganacarus magnus: genome rearrangements and loss of tRNAs
TLDR
Phylogenetic analyses of a concatenated amino acid dataset of all mt protein-coding genes of 28 arthropod species suggest a sister-group relationship of sarcoptiform and prostigmatid mites (S. magnus and Leptotrombidium) and further complete mt genomes are needed for solving phylogenetic relationships of oribatid mite lineages.

Oribatid mite and collembolan diversity, density and community structure in a moder beech forest (Fagus sylvatica): effects of mechanical perturbations
View via Publisher
Regional factors rather than forest type drive the community structure of soil living oribatid mites (Acari, Oribatida)
TLDR
Density of oribatid mites was highest in the coniferous forests and decreased in the order 30 years old, 70 years old, and natural beech forests, indicating that regional factors are more important than effects associated with forest type.

The phylogenetic relationship between Astigmata and Oribatida (Acari) as indicated by molecular markers
TLDR
Maximum parsimony, neighbor-joining and Bayesian algorithms formed trees that consistently placed Astigmata outside monophyletic Oribatida, usually as sister-group of the endeostigmatid mite Alicorhagia sp.

Adding to 'the enigma of soil animal diversity': fungal feeders and saprophagous soil invertebrates prefer similar food substrates

Compartmentalization of the soil animal food web as indicated by dual analysis of stable isotope ratios (15N/14N and 13C/12C)

Tropical Andean Forests Are Highly Susceptible to Nutrient Inputs—Rapid Effects of Experimental N and P Addition to an Ecuadorian Montane Forest
TLDR
It is shown that Neotropical montane rainforests respond rapidly to moderate additions of N and P, which suggest marked changes in species composition and diversity of these forests by nutrient inputs in the long term.
