Changes in the vertical distribution of the Collembolan Onychiurus subtenuis were observed in the litter layers of a Populus tremuloides woodland in Alberta, Canada during summer and autumn. Field studies showed that the Collembola moved down into the deeper horizons of the litter profile during the dry summer months but that a significant proportion of the population returned to the surface litter layers within a few hours after summer rain storms and remained to feed there until the litter dried out again.
