Abstract:
AbstractGround-dwelling ants are active foragers that may extend their foraging area into the vegetation, although the factors affecting their diversity in the suspended litter of understorey plants remain overlooked. To evaluate the influence of the distance between strata, litter biomass and plant size on the ant fauna, the litter ant assemblage of the suspended stratum was compared with the ground immediately below the understorey treelet Erythrochiton brasiliensis (Rutaceae) in an Atlantic Forest, south-eastern Brazil. We collected 1364 ants from 26 ant species. The suspended litter ant as

Tardigrades are known to inhabit a variety of substrates, including leaf litter. In this article, I describe a new tardigrade species, Adropion fagineum n. sp. that inhabits beech leaf litter in the Italian Northern Apennines. Due to having long and thin macroplacoids, the new species belongs to the species of the belgicae-scoticum complex; however, it can be differentiated from other species by the number of macropla

Abstract:
This paper describes habitat and geographic correlates of ant diversity in Serra da Bodoquena, a poorly surveyed region of central-western Brazil. We discuss leaf-litter ant diversity on a regional scale, with emphasis on the contribution of each of the processes that form the evolutionary basis of contemporary beta diversity. The diversity of leaf-litter ants was assessed from a series of 262 Winkler samples conducted in two microbasins within a deciduous forest domain. A total of 170 litter-dwelling ant species in 45 genera and 11 subfamilies was identified. The data showed that the study ar

Abstract:
To understand the global distribution patterns of litter-dwelling thrips, a total 150 leaf litter samples were collected from 6 natural reserves located in three climatic regions, temperate, subtropical and tropical. The results showed the relative abundance of Thysanoptera was over 3.0% in 4 natural reserves from subtropical and tropical zone, and reached 5.9% in one tropical reserve, only less than Acarina and Collembola. In contrast it was only 0.3% in the warm temperate natural reserves, and no thrips were collected in a mid temperate reserve. The order on the average species numbers per p

The ant genus Kempfidris comprises a single rarely collected species, Kempfidris inusualis (Fernández, 2007). The record presented here represents an extension of this species distribution in the Amazon Basin of approximately 593 km to the south. The specimens were collected in the leaf litter of a seasonally flooded area. This record consolidates the hypothesis that K. inusualis is a ground-dwelling species that inhabits leaf litter and probably nests in rotten logs or other dead wood.

A dataset for a hypothetical ground-dwelling beetle species is used to illustrate five methods of habitat analysis: (1) comparison of group means, (2) multiple linear regression, (3) multiple logistic regression, (4) classification and regression trees, and (5) principal components analysis. The dataset consists of abundance (counts of individuals) recorded in each of 100 small survey plots located throughout forested study sites. The following environmental predictor variables were measured in each plot: percentage canopy cover, depth of leaf litter, volume of woody debris, ratio of oak to no
