Extract

In all the quantitative studies of the forest floor, sod, and soil faunas, the Acarina or mites have been grouped under one head as useful in reducing dead leaves and twigs to crude mineral matter, in spite of the fact that it is well known that some of the floor Acarina are eaters of mildews and moulds (minute fungi), some are predaceous, and some feed on living plant tissue.
