| - Nidobiology of tengmalm's owl differs from other cavity nesters by nest size and the amount of food left-overs and excrements of chicks in the nests. These factors may considerably affect the composition of arthropod fauna in their nests. Three pseudoscorpions, Dinocheirus panzeri, Cherries cimicoides, Chelifer cancroides, were recorded in 94 nests of the tengmalm's owl. Of them, D. panzeri and C. cimicoides show a high affinity to bird nests. Among 7 mesostigmatic mite species found in the nests, the haematophagous ectoparasite Dermanyssus gallinae strongly predominated (76.9% of all mesostigmatic mites). The tick Ixodes arboricola, a significant ectoparasite of cavity nesting birds, was also found. Beetles were represented by 23 species. The carnivorous, typically nidicolous Gnathoncus buyssoni was eudominant (41.8%). It was accompanied by two other nidicolous species, Gnathoncus rotundatus and Haploglossa puncticollis, both representing 10.7% of individuals. Their occurrence was not correlated with the occurrence of mites that could have been their potential food source (correlation coefficient - 0.068). There was a high proportion of necrophagous and coprophagous beetles (34.8% of species and 30.5% of individuals). Fleas were represented by two species - Ceratophyllus gallinae, the main parasite of tengmalm's owl, and Ceratophyllus sciurorum sciurorum, occurring in the nests of tengmalm's owl occasionally.
