Abstract

Broadleaf forests are rare in Norway and they are considered one of the most biodiverse terrestrial habitats in Fennoscandia. These forests are poorly studied in terms of their acarofauna. Mites of two groups, Oribatida and Mesostigmata, were studied in a broadleaf forest in western Norway. In total, 6350 oribatid mites, representing 67 species (i.e., 25% of the known Norwegian species) and 559 mesostigmatid mites representing 22 species (9% of the species recorded from Norway) were collected. The mean densities of Oribatida and Mesostigmata were 454 and 40 individuals per 0.5 dm3, respectively. The most abundant member of Oribatida was Oribatula exilis (29% of Oribatida collected), while Zercon lindrothi made up 59% of Mesostigmata. Fifteen of the oribatid species were first records for Norway, including six new to Fennoscandia: Phthiracarus compressus, Suctobelbella arcana, S. hammerae, S. prominens, Campachipteria patavina and Liebstadia longior.

挪威西部阔叶林螨类多样性(蜱螨亚纲:甲螨亚目，中鞭毛螨亚目)

阔叶林在挪威很少见，被认为是芬诺斯坎迪亚生物多样性最强的陆地栖息地之一。对这些森林的螨类研究很少。在挪威西部的一片阔叶林中，研究了奥里巴斯螨和中斯的螨两个类群的螨类。总共收集了6350只甲螨，代表67个物种（即已知挪威物种的25%）和559只中蜱螨，代表22个物种（占挪威记录物种的9%）。Oribatida和Mesostimata的平均密度分别为每0.5 dm3 454只和40只。Oribatida最丰富的成员是Oribatula exilis（收集到的Oribatida的29%），而Zercon lindrothi占中柱头动物的59%。其中15种是挪威的首次记录，其中6种是芬诺斯坎迪亚的新物种：圆唇甲藻、奥氏苏克托贝尔贝拉藻、哈默雷藻、普罗米宁藻、帕塔韦纳Campachipteria patavina和长利伯斯塔迪亚。

期刊介绍： Annales Zoologici Fennici publishes mainly original research reports, but also in-depth reviews and commentaries on all aspects of animal ecology and evolution, and fields related to them. Our aim is to promote papers which focus on the interactions among various components in the past and present environments by using integrative and cross-disciplinary approaches. This may be achieved by employing tools from different fields of research, such as (but not restricted to): ecology and paleoecology, molecular ecology and phylogeography, conservation biology, human-induced contemporary evolution and wildlife management, animal behaviour and interactions (including recognition systems and mechanisms), paleontology (except systematics and taxonomy) and evolution, bioenergetics.
