Two-Dimensional Microdistribution or Cellular Slime Molds in Forest Soil

Four sample series consisting of 101 small samples (@? wet wt = 0.2 g) of forest soil were examined for the presence of cellular slime molds. Although each sample series contained 5 cellular slime mold species, the distribution of species among the samples indicates that on a microlevel, 5, 4, or ev...

Zusammenfassung:Four sample series consisting of 101 small samples (@? wet wt = 0.2 g) of forest soil were examined for the presence of cellular slime molds. Although each sample series contained 5 cellular slime mold species, the distribution of species among the samples indicates that on a microlevel, 5, 4, or even 3 species seem seldom to co-occur. The results also demonstrate the extreme patchiness or cellular slime mold distribution in nature.
