Decomposition of Dactylis glomerata litter was compared in two adjoining ley meadows (aged 2-3 years and 8-9 years), differing in succession phase. The soil nematode density was higher in young meadow than in old one. In young meadow, the numbers of the litter-colonizing nematodes were several times higher. Exposure of litter always promoted an increase in the density of nematodes in the substrate. The species Panagrolaimus rigidus was the main dominant in litter.
