Among 12 millipede species revealed, Xestoiulus laeticollis, Polydesmus complanatus, Craspedosoma rawlinsii occurred and predominated in all alder woods. The centipede fauna was very poor, altogether represented by four species, only Lithobius curtipes being shared by all sites. The myriapod communities from the swampy alder woods (Ribeso nigri-Alnetum) at Biebrza and in the Bialowieza Primeval Forest were mainly under the influence of fertility soil parameters (available and total phosphorus contents) while the assemblage from an alder swamp at Narew was largely affected by soil humidity. Apparently, the community from an ash-alder alluvial wood (Fraxino-Alnetum) sampled in the Bialowieza Primeval Forest mostly depended on soil pH.
