Tree species identity governs the soil macrofauna community composition and soil development at reclaimed post-mining sites on calcium-rich clays
Original language description
We tested the effect of main soil characteristics and tree species on earthworm community composition and abundance in reclaimed spoil heaps planted with five different tree species. Earthworm and soil macroarthropod abundance and biomass were highest in alder plantations, followed by oak plantations. The numbers of soil macrofauna were positively correlated with the total soil N content, which was highest in alder plantation. The correlation was strongest for endogeic earthworms (genus Aporrectodea and Octolasion). Soil moisture, measured in top 10cm, affected only endogeic species. Other soil variables (pH, Ca) did not have a strong effect on earthworms. The earthworm community composition was similar in alder and oak, with most species occurring at both types of forest, however, in alder forest the epigeic species Dendrobaena octaedra was more common, whilst in oak forest the epigeic earthworms form genus Lumbricus were more abundant (L. rubellus and L. castaneus). The anecic species Aporrectodea
