Spatial and biocenotic trends in the water-mite fauna of small ponds

Forty-one permanent and temporary ponds have been studied in a mountain range in the center of Spain. Abiotic variables are used to characterize the ponds. Spatial and biocenotic distribution patterns of macroinvertebrates with special reference to the water mite fauna are considered. Order of authorship determined by the toss of a coin.
