The soil mites from different habitats i.e. Natural secondary forest, Farm-land, artificial secondary forest, Three-North Forest Shelterbelt etc. in Changchun Metropolitan area were investigated. The soil mites were extracted through Tullgren extractor and were identified to the genus level. A total of 8703 soil mite individuals was captured and fell into 92 genera. The characteristics of soil mite community structure was analyzed by using individual density, number of taxon, diversity, abundance, and evenness as well as MGP analysis and MI index.The results suggest that the land-use types affect the community structures of soil mites significantly, and litter removal and cultivation are the main factors in play. Litter removal considerably decreased the numbers of soil mite taxon, abundance and diversity, and cultivation changes vertical distribution of soil mite individual density in the soil profile and accelerate them move to the lower soil layers. The studies also suggest that the type of vegetation aboveground appear to have little influence on the ecological structures of soil mite community.
