A study on abundance and group diversity of soil microarthropods at four different soil habitats in North Dinajpur, West Bengal, India

Journal Title: International Journal of Experimental Research and Review - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 6

Abstract

Sampling was conducted at four different sites i.e., an agricultural field, a river basin, a brick field and a forest floor from the district of Uttar Dinajpur, West Bengal, India. Though abundance was higher at the forest site, the group diversities during summer, monsoon and post-monsoon seasons were highest at the river basin. Site-specific and temporal variation of abundance was significant among the sites s (p<0.05).
