Five different bamboo plantations were investigated on the basis of the leaf litter inhabiting mites. 11 Mesostigmata and 10 Oribatida are listed from the leaf litters, of which three species, e.g. Vulgarogamasus kraepelini (Berlese, 1905), Nothrus parvus Sitnikova, 1975, Metabelba paravulverosa Moritz, 1966 are new to the Hungarian fauna.Keywords: Acari, Mesostigmata, Oribatida, bamboo leaf litter, new occurrences, Hungary.Acarological researches have a long tradition in Hungary (Horváth et al., 2010), but most of the studies on the soil dwelling mites concentrated on the natural areas, and the agricultural soils and other habitats are scarcely investigated.Bamboo plantings are common in Hungary in the urban areas, the most widely planted species include Phyllostachys aureosulcata, P. flexuosa and Phyllostachys viridi-glaucescens, but P. aurea, P. vivax f. aureocaulis, P. nigra and some Pleioblastus and Sasa taxa are also regularly offered by retail nurseries. While from specialist nurseries over 50 temperate bamboo taxa are available.In the last years, several papers were presented about the mites collected on Hungarian bamboo plantings. Firstly Ripka (1998Ripka ( , 2006 listed phytoseiid mites found on bamboo plants, some years later Ripka (2011) discovered and described a new genus and a new species of the eriophyid mites from a Phyllostachys species. More recently Kontschán and Neményi (2013) found for the first time East-Asian spider mites on the leaves of Phyllostachys aurea, and one year later Kontschán et al. (2014) listed the first bamboo leaf litter dwelling mites with some leaf inhabiting ones.This new paper contains our new results of the mites which were collected in the leaf litters of five Hungarian bamboo plantings.
