Study on soil fauna of subtropical forests in China

我们的中日合作项目是由12名日本和15名中国参与者组织的，题目是“中国亚热带森林土壤动物研究”，鉴于环境干扰正在亚洲亚热带地区迅速蔓延，西天目山是世界上土壤动物群落最丰富、最有趣的地方1989年8 ~ 9月在国家级自然保护区浙江省乌岩岭，1990年9月在自然保护区浙江省乌岩岭，用Tullgren仪器采集法和筛分法，对两种方法进行了比较。在1989-1991年期间，所有参加者都集中精力促进我们上述野外研究所取得的标本的分类学研究。正如我们所预料的那样，这些收藏品中包含了如此多未知或鲜为人知的物种。我们的估计表明，其中包括150多个新物种。我们有 关于我们 我们已经在9篇论文中发表了12个新种的描述，并将在12篇文章中发表约40个新类型的描述（出版中），尽管我们的集体和个人努力一直在不懈地继续。对土壤甲螨、弹尾虫等小型节肢动物的分类学研究，需要进行长期的（如：G.另一方面，也必须强调《中国亚热带土壤动物》一书的重要价值（尹等，出版中[可能于1992年6月出版]）。科学出版社，北京）。本书共记载506属716种，收录文字60万字，图表1600余幅.这是对本课题的初步总结，也是我国第一本用中文编写的土壤生态学教材。它对中国土壤生态学的发展和今后中日在各个领域的合作具有十分重要的意义和深远的影响。少

Our Sino-Japanese cooperative project was organized by 12 Japanese and 15 Chinese participants under the title of "Study on soil fauna of subtropical forests in China", in view of that environmental disturbance is rapidly spreading over the subtropical area in Asia, which is presumably the richest and the most interesting of all the world in the animal community of the soil.Our field researches were done on West Tian-mu Mountain (Zhejiang Province), a national protective area in August - September, 1989, and in Wu-yan-ling (Zhejiang Province), a natural protective area in September, 1990, by the gleaning method with Tullgren apparatuses and sieving method. Through the years 1989-1991, all the participants have concentrated their efforts to promote taxonomic study of the collections made by our field researches mentioned above. As we expected, the collections comprised so many unknown or little known species. Our estimate suggests more than 150 new species are included in them. We have … More already issued descriptions of 12 new species in 9 papers and will publish those of about 40 new forms in 12 articles (in press), though our collective and indidual efforts have been tirelessly continued. So far as taxonomic studies on such micro-arthropods as oribatid mites and collembolans in soil are concerned, it is necessary to carry on a long term (e. g. 10 years in the shortest case) and well oraganized program in order to achieve satisfactory results.On the other hand, it must be stressed the significant value in the publication of "Subtropical Soil Animals in China (Yin and others, in press [probably to be issued in June, 1992. Science Press, Beijingl)". This book mentions 506 genera 716 species, and comprises 600 thousand Chinese words and 1600 figures. It is not only a preliminary summary on our project, but also the first text book of soil zoology written in Chinese language. We can expect its very important meaning and strong influence on the progress of soil zoology in China and for future development of Sino-Japanese cooperations in various fields. Less
