摘要
In a previous paper [M. Gutiérrez, M. Ramajo, J.B. Jesxfa;s, D.J. Díaz, The effect of Hormogaster elisae (Hormogastridae) on the abundance of soil Collembola and Acari in laboratory cultures, Biol. Fertil. Soils 37 (2003) 231–236] we reported the negative effect of the earthworm Hormogaster elisae on microarthropods at El Molar (Madrid, Spain). This paper examines the possibility of food competition existing between them in laboratory cultures.
