A New Method to Evaluate Habitat Status Based On the Use of Data On Oribatid Mites (Acari: Oribatida)
نویسندگان
چکیده
Several indicators have been available for evaluating the coenological-ecological status of habitats. Of these, functions that are simple to use in a standardized way are of great importance in environmental biology. One such method involves listing the genera occurring in a given habitat with large abundance and species richness. In our study, the indication power of genus-level lists of Oribatid mites and the underlying effects behind the generation of similarity patterns were analysed using data on Oribatid mites collected by ourselves and derived from the literature. Our objective was to develop a method by which the distance between two Oribatid mite genus lists originating from any sources is evaluated for correspondence to spatial scales.
