Maraun 2010: Community structure, trophic position and reproductive mode of soil and bark-living oribatid mites in an alpine grassland ecosystem. - Experimental and Applied Acarology52(3): 221-237.

Abstract: [Study in the Central Alps, Tyrol, Austria. "Several species of bark-living oribatid mites had stable isotope signatures that were similar to lichens indicating that they feed on lichens. However, nine species that frequently occurred on tree bark did not feed on lichens according to their stable isotope signatures."]
