The results show a strong reaction of the oribatid mites to the change of forestry methods from pine monocultures to mixed pine and beech stands. The abundance of oribatid mites significantly decreases as pines are replaced by beeches. Also the species composition of the oribatid community changes slowly as some species disappear while others immigrate. Mesoplophora pulchra Sellnick, 1928 is found on beech stand of Müritz National Park as a new species for the fauna of Germany.}, type={Text}, title={Reactions of oribatid mites (Acari: Oribatida) to changed forestry methods in the lowlands of northeastern Germany}, keywords={Oribatida, Oribatei, moss mites, beetle mites, Acari, Acarina, arachnids, Arachnida, Germany, zoocenosis, new taxa to the fauna of Germany, pine forests, beech forest, ecology}, }
