Communities of invertebrates (pedo- and chorthobionts) in the Altai Mts.: spatial-typological structure

The article deals with distribution patterns of terrestrial invertebrate biomass in the Altai Mts. The special database (101 rows and 25 columns) is created for comparative analyses and future GIS development. It includes data on air-dry biomass of soil and herbage invertebrates (pedo- and chorthobionts) in the main types of ecosystems in the Altai Mts. The spatial-typological structure of their assemblages' distribution is revealed. The main factor determining this structure is a vegetation type. The influence of relief, altitudes and heat fluxes are less significant. All factors and regimes can explaine 68~\% of the variability of assemblages.
