| Abstract | Studies in a series of Chihuahuan Desert litter and soil habitats confirmed that reproductive activity was most pronounced following the major rainfall, as in the Mojave Desert. Immediately after the summer rains, evidence was found of considerable breeding activity in more than 60% of the oribatid species studied in the former desert. |
