• Diverse mite communities (Acari: Oribatida, Mesostigmata) from a broadleaf forest in western Norway 

      Seniczak, Anna Beata; Bolger, Thomas; Roth, Steffen; Seniczak, Stanislaw; Djursvoll, Per; Jordal, Bjarte Henry (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      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 ...
    • A Forest Pool as a Habitat Island for Mites in a Limestone Forest in Southern Norway 

      Seniczak, Anna; Seniczak, Stanisław; Graczyk, Radomir; Kaczmarek, Sławomir; Jordal, Bjarte Henry; Kowalski, Jaroslaw; Djursvoll, Per; Roth, Steffen; Bolger, Thomas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021-11-12)
      Forest water bodies, e.g., pools, constitute ‘environmental islands’ within forests, with specific flora and fauna thus contributing considerably to the landscape biodiversity. The mite communities of Oribatida and ...
    • High Diversity of Mites (Acari: Oribatida, Mesostigmata) Supports the High Conservation Value of a Broadleaf Forest in Eastern Norway 

      Seniczak, Anna; Seniczak, Stanislaw; Stary, Josef; Kaczmarek, Slawomir; Jordal, Bjarte Henry; Kowalski, Jaroslaw; Roth, Steffen; Djursvoll, Per; Bolger, Thomas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Broadleaf forests are critical habitats for biodiversity and this biodiversity is in turn essential for their proper functioning. Mites (Acari) are a numerous and functionally essential component of these forests. We report ...
    • Mites (Oribatida and Mesostigmata) and vegetation as complementary bioindicators in peatlands 

      Seniczak, Anna; Seniczak, Stanislaw; Iturrondobeitia, J. Carlos; Gwiazdowicz, Dariusz J.; Waldon-Rudzionek, Barbara; Flatberg, Kjell Ivar; Bolger, Thomas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Vegetation is widely used in the assessment of the quality of peatlands, while the invertebrate fauna of peatlands is relatively poorly studied. We compared the bioindicator values of vegetation with two arthropod groups ...
