- Description
- Although a considerable amount of work has been done on the fauna of the soil of temperate forests and pastures, very little is known about that of tropical and sub-tropical soils. Most of the work on tropical soils concerns the fauna of tropical forests ... . The present investigation represents an attempt to discover the effect of an imported perennial tropical and sub-tropical plant, the Pineapple, on the soil fauna of a semi-arid region (rainfall 15-25 inches). Intro., p. 1-2
