In total, 171 oribatid species were found in Latorica Protected Lanscape Area (PLA) (i.e. 31,4 % of the total Slovakian oribatid fauna), belonging to 55 families and 101 genera or subgenera in the material of 29 822 individuals collected during the years 2008 – 2011 on 24 localities completed by literary data from another two localities in the territory of Latorica PLA. Following 17 species are new records for the fauna of Slovakia - Atropacarus (Atropacarus) phyllophorus, Brachychthonius bimaculatus, Dometorina plantivaga, Indotritia consimilis, Lichthonius alpestris, Liochthonius leptaleus, Machuella draconis, Ophidiotrichus connexus, Oribatella reticulata, Phthiracarus bryobius, Platyliodes doderleini, Podoribates longipes, Sellnickochthonius jacoti, Sellnickochthonius rostratus, Sellnickochthonius subcricoides, Sellnickochthonius suecicus, and Steganacarus (Tropacarus) brevipilus. The most important record from a faunistic point of view is the record of Indotritia consimilis from Kašvar National Nature Reserve, which is the third one for the world oribatid fauna. Following species show preference for flooded and riparian forests - Carabodes coriaceus, Euphthiracarus cribrarius, Chamobates subglobulus, Liacarus coracinus, Liochthonius leptaleus, Liochthonius strenzkei, Oppia denticulata, and Suctobelba granulata. Important faunistic elements are stenotopic, xerophilous species with Southern European and Mediterranean distribution characteristic for dry, open biotopes – Berniniella (Berniniella) aeoliana, Ceratozetes minutissimus, Eremobelba geographica, Indotritia consimilis, Microzetorchestes emeryi, and Zetorchestes falzonii.
