The study was performed in an experimental plot in a&lt;br/&gt;sclerophyllous forest of Mediterranean climate, consisting mainly of&lt;br/&gt;Quercus ilex and Pinus halepensis. Field sampling was performed during&lt;br/&gt;25 consecutive months in order to quantify the density of Julidae. In&lt;br/&gt;the experimental plot (40 x 40 m), three horizons were sampled: L+F&lt;br/&gt;(leaf litter fall), H (humus), and A (the first five cm oft he mineral&lt;br/&gt;layer). Among the studied material, we found four species of Julidae:&lt;br/&gt;Cylindroiulus punctatus (Leach, 1815), Cylindroiulus sanctimichaelis&lt;br/&gt;Attems, 1927, Leptoiulus belgicus (Latzel, 1884), and Ommatoiulus&lt;br/&gt;sabulosus (Linnaeus, 1758), with mean densities of 39.45, 35.22, 3.79&lt;br/&gt;and 0.77 ind./m(2), respectively. We didn't find significant differences&lt;br/&gt;in mean density between months during the study period for any of these&lt;br/&gt;four species. The vertical distribution along the edaphic profile was&lt;br/&gt;evaluated using the index of Usher. All species showed a preference for&lt;br/&gt;horizon H, with occasional migrations towards the deeper level A, or the&lt;br/&gt;shallower level L/F. The analysis of the distribution of juvenile and&lt;br/&gt;adult specimens indicated that the reproductive periods occurred mostly&lt;br/&gt;in late winter or spring, while the recruitment occurred in spring-early&lt;br/&gt;summer.</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
