บทคัดย่อ :
Soil animals play important roles in the decomposition processes of leaf litter and nutrient dynamics (Watanabe, 1973; Anderson and Flanagan, 1989), and are also associated with the soil structure through their feeding activities (Lavelle et al., 1992; Lavelle et al., 1995). Among the soil animals, soil arthropods are numerous in abundances and diverse in species richness (Andre et al., 1994; Coleman et al., 2004). This diversity of soil arthropods increases the complexity and stability of forest ecosystems. The sensitivity of soil arthropods has been used for the monitoring of the forest ecosystems (Bird et al., 2000). The species composition of soil arthropods is a good indicator for management of forest ecosystems. (Continue)
