Barnes, V.M., 1997. Panzer mites on the forest phylloplane. Memoirs of the Museum of Victoria 56(2): 643-646. The distribution and abundance ofthe phylloplane specialist,A polyphyllos, appears to be influenced by architectural complexities of the leaf. Introduction Over the last decade, canopy fogging in a variety of tropical forests has changed our perception of the biodiversity of insects. However, most of these studies have probably underestimated both the abundance and species richness of a more obscure group of arthropods, the mites (Acari) (Walter and O'Dowd, 1995a). Usually considered denizens of the soil and litter, these tiny mites may exploit the wide variety of food resources and microhabitats (ranging from the leaf surface, or phylloplane, to bark crevices) available in the forest canopy (Walter et al., 1994; Walter and O'Dowd, 1995b). For example, the diverse Oribatida or 'Panzer mites' (a German term referring to their 'tank-like' exoskeleton) are typically stereotyped as a soildwelling group. Yet, some Panzer mites may lead arboreal lifestyles or even be microhabitat specialists within the forest canopy (Walter and Behan-Pelletier, 1993). In forests in southeastern Australia, I studied the distributional ecology of one such oribatid mite, Adhaesozetes polyphyllos (Acari: Oribatida: Licneremaeoidea) asking three questions:
