There was a positive correlation between the growth of populations of the Oribatid mite Oppia nova and the development of cellulolytic fungi, in particular Oidiodendron echinulatum and Rhinocladiella elatior. Other Oribatid mites and some Acaridiae, Uropoda and Collembola were also able to develop in association with these fungi.
