Soil microarthropods play important role in soil food web and contribution the nutrient cycling and soil system health. Among diverse taxa, gamasid mite Acari: Gamasida) is considered as a top predator group in soil ecosystem. We compared the soil microarthropod communities focused on gamasid mite species composition. Soil samples were collected Mt. Cheonju in bukmyeon, Changwon-si, Gyeongsangnam-do. On the mountain hill, contagious pine tree (Pinus densiflora) and oak tree (Quercus acutissima) stand were sampled while the bamboo tree (Phyllostachy bambusoides) stand is located in ap. 200m below from the mountain hill. Soil microarthopods abundance was high in bamboo and pine tree stand, but lower in oak tree stand. The dominance order was oribatid mite, collembolan and gamasid mites in pine tree stand, oribatid mite, insects, and gamasid in oak tree stand while in bamboo stand, oribatid mites were out numbered (75%) followed by collembolan. Collected gamasid mites were 146 individuals and 34 species. Species richness and diversity was highest in oak tree stand and lowest in bamboo stand. Cluster analysis showed highest similar in pine-oak stand to bamboo stand. Dominant species were Holaspina dentatus (Parholaspididae) in pine stand, Gamasus fujisanus, Veigaia sp in oak stand, and Gamasus fujisanus in bamboo stand.

Gamasid mites are top predators and occupy a central position of the soil food web in the forest ecosystem. This study investigated the soil dwelling gamasid mite community during 8-9 years after the massive mountain fire which occurred in April 2000. Total of 11 families, 44 species and 943 individuals were found. Abundance and species richness of soil gamasid mites was high in less fire-impacted sites (C2 and T3) including unburned control site (Con) than in severely impacted sites (T1 and T2). Genus Holaspina comprised 40-84% of the total abundance of gamasid mites indicating the group may play the key role in soil food web. Dominant species of gamasid mite was H. alstoni, H. communis, H. dentaus, H. ochraceus, H. trifucatus of the Genus Holaspina 5 species in all sites. Some detail biological information was pursued in this group. After 8-9 years from the massive fire, it was noted that the soil gamasid mite communities were recovered from the less severely burned sites but not from the severely burned sites.

There are many related studies; however, almost all of them focus on higher taxonomic tendencies, ignoring a difference in the reaction for each species. In this study, we measured relative basal area (RBA) as the index for invasion of broad-leaved trees into eight Larch plantations, and investigated the relationship between RBA and composition and abundance of oribatid mites community. As a result, we found 49 families, 60genus, 89 species, 24,368 adult and larvae and nymphs, 56,364. The degree of invasion of broad-leaved trees did not affect significantly total abundance and number of species for oribatid mites observed. While, those measurements significantly correlated with the total amount of litter, including conifer and broad-leaves. We also found that there are many oribatid mite species showing habitat preference relating to a kind of litter.

Gamasida (Acari, Parasitiformes) is one the most diverse group in mites, and they inhabit in various environments, for example soil, tree canopy, tree trunk, leaves, animal, inter-tidal zone. About 10,000 species have been described in the world, half of them are predatory mites in soil and litter, and they prey on nematodes, small insects and mites. Although many predatory gamasid mites have been recorded from soil and litter in Japan, difference of diversity and difference of species composition of gamasid mites in different soil environments have not surveyed and discussed yet. In the present study, we surveyed soil gamasid mites in urban environment in Sapporo City, Hokkaido, Japan, and compared with gamasid mites in secondary forests (mixed forest, deciduous broad-leaved forest) in and near Sapporo. Our study focused on the following points: 1) difference of diversity in each environment; 2) characteristic taxa in each envrironment; and 3) availability of some taxa as bioindicator to evaluate environment. Number of species and index of diversity were higher in the fauna of secondary forests. Diversity of the families Parasitidae and Laelapidae were higher in urban environment fauna, while diversity of Parholaspidae and Veigaiidae were higher in the forest one. In the forest, mites of the family Zerconidae appeared exclusively, whereas one species of the family Parholaspidae and Parasitidae were dominant in urban mite fauna. Family Zerconidae and some species of Parholaspidae and Parasitidae may be available as bioindicator to evaluate soil environment.
