| Abstract: | A small-scale field study of oribatid and collembolan communities was conducted in the floodplain area of the Ondava River in the East-Slovak Lowland, to assess the role of temporary water pools in microdepressions with heavy soils for microarthropod distribution in an agricultural landscape. Soil samples were taken from five sites across a microdepression without water outflow located in a cultivated field. For comparison, willow field margin was included into the study. Results from ordination analysis showed specific communities at the pool-shore, clearly different from those of the arable field and willow margin sites. Pool-shore communities were mainly affected by soil pH (positive correlation) and dominated by oribatid mites Subiasella quadrimaculata and Microppia minus, together with Collembola Folsomia quadrioculata and Lepidocyrtus cyaneus. The soil surrounding freshwater pools is assumed to be a temporary microhabitat for several microarthropod species that contribute to the biodiversity of the agricultural landscape. |
