“…Dengan demikian, Diplopoda berperan penting dalam proses percepatan dekomposisi bahan organik bersama-sama dengan mikrobiota tanah, sehingga penting pada proses siklus unsur hara di tanah dan berkontribusi dalam meningkatkan kesuburan tanah (Sridhar & Ashwini, 2011). Keberadaan Diplopoda tanah juga dapat digunakan untuk memantau kualitas lingkungan karena Diplopoda sensitif terhadap perubahan ekosistem semi-alami atau buatan (Hopkin & Read,1992;Stašiov et al, 2014;Fiemapong, 2021).…”

Soil diplopods are an important biotic component in agricultural land ecosystems. Its presence in the soil is an important in the decomposition process of soil organic matter, and plays a role in increasing soil fertility. This study aims to study the community structure of soil Diplopoda at different altitudes in the Bengkulu Kabawetan Tea Plantation. The location of the study used the stratified sampling method which is based on the altitude of 800 m, 900 m and 1000 m above sea level. Soil Diplopods were collected by using the 50x50 cm quadratic method and a 100 m line transect. Data analysis consisted of density, relative density, diversity index, and Morisita index. There were 4 types of soil Diplopods in the Bengkulu Kabawetan Tea Plantation, namely Arthrosphaera sp., Gyrodrepanum sp., Oxidus sp., and Trigoniulus sp. At an altitude of 900 m and 1000 m, 4 species of Diplopoda were found and at an altitude of 800 m consisted of 3 types of Diplopoda. The density of soil diplopods at the three study locations varied, with the highest density at an altitude of 1000 m followed by at an altitude of 800 m and at 900m. The diversity index at the three locations is low and moderate. The distribution of diplopods at the study site was random and uniform.

Millipedes are soil macrodetritivores with considerable roles in decomposing organic matter and recycling nutrients. This paper aims to identify the effects of land use on millipedes based on a literature review. Land use changes impact species distribution, diversity, and behavior with consequences for litter decomposition and soil quality. Surrounding landscapes influence the millipedes’ community structure. The effects of land use under different ecological contexts and in wetlands and woody riparian zones constitute essential gaps in knowledge.

The dry Puna is the widest pastoral ecosystem of the tropical alpine Andes, characterized by harsh environmental conditions (long and intense drought stress periods and unfertile soils) and grazed by wild and domestic camelids. In these conditions, facilitation is of key importance in plant diversity conservation. Indeed, facilitation is a positive plant-plant interaction by which the so called nurse species provide environmental amelioration of harsh conditions and/or refuge to other plants (beneficiary species), which otherwise might fail to establish. The research aims were to understand which ecological variables affect the distribution of the potential nurse cushion species Pycnophyllum molle J. Rémy and P. weberbaueri Muschl., and if these species are affected by grazing disturbance. The study area (4000-4900 m a.s.l.) is located in the southern Peruvian Andes. Data of species cover, topographic and soil features, besides type of disturbance were collected along transects. We used canonical redundancy analysis to understand the relations between the cover of the two Pycnophyllum species and the above mentioned constraining variables. Results indicate that both the Pycnophyllum species grow on sandy loam, moderately acid soils, with low organic matter and very poor nitrogen content, and avoid high disturbance intensities. P. molle is more sensitive than P. weberbaueri to disturbance, and grows on relatively more fertile soils, also at higher altitudes and on steeper slopes characterized by greater rockiness.
