The concentration of sulphur pollution in these forests increased towards the pollution source. In the most polluted plot, the density, species diversity and species number of Gamasida were lower than in the control area. The pollution affected also the dominance structure of mites. In the control plot, Zercon peltatus predominated, while in plots 2 and 3 Pergamasus runciger was the most abundant. On the contrary, the strongly polluted plot 1 was predominated by Rhodacarus coronatus. Some gamasid mites (Zercon peltatus and Pergamasus misellus) were sensitive to these pollutants, while Rhodacarus coronatus tolerated them. Some species (Eviphis ostrinus and Pergamasus runciger) were sensitive to a high concentration of sulphur, but tolerated small concentrations
