Abstract
The ecological series of soil animals under the broad-leaved and pine mixed forest in Darlidai Mountain was studied. Seven sample plots were selected according to different altitude gradients, which belong to different vegetation types. By investigating and analyzing soil animals in every sample plot it is found that there are 45 groups and 1956 individuals, which are involved in 3 phylums, 7 classes, 16 orders, respectively. The altitude is a key factor which affects ecological series of soil animals. Both the groups and individuals of soil animals increase with altitude increasing under certain conditions, which contrastes with ordinary cases, resulting from special micro-climate in studied area. The groups and individuls of soil animals are the most under the broad-leaved and pine forest on the top of the mountain, and the least under Picea-Abies forest in the foot of the mountain.
