Figure 1. Locations of 14 sampling
sites in East Asia, where TH = Tahe, ARS = Aershan, CBS = Changbaishan,
DLS = Donglingshan, BTM = Baotianman, BDGS = Badagongshan, TTS =
Tiantongshan, SMT = Shimentai, JFL = Jianfengling, XSBN = Xishuangbanna,
GH = Guanghua, SPK = Sapporo, HMA = Hiroshima, and YS = Yushan. The
fourteen sites belong to three climate zones, which are Temperate zone
(Temp), Subtropical zone (Subt), and Tropical zone (Trop). The graph on
the bottom left shows the numbers of overall
(ꭓ2=7.582, p=0.02), phytophage
(ꭓ2=0.352, p=0.839), and predacity
(ꭓ2=1.040,
p=0.595) orders in temperate, subtropical, and tropical zone, “a” and
“b” represent significant differences. The subset of graphs on the
bottom right shows the relationship between the number of orders and
latitudinal across fourteen sampling sites. Note: “*” indicated p ≤
0.05 and “**” indicated p ≤ 0.01.
Figure 2. DCA analysis of soil fauna order compositions among 14
sampling sites in East Asia, where
TH = Tahe, ARS = Aershan, CBS = Changbaishan, DLS = Donglingshan, BTM =
Baotianman, BDGS = Badagongshan, TTS = Tiantongshan, SMT = Shimentai,
JFL = Jianfengling, XSBN = Xishuangbanna, GH = Guanghua, SPK = Sapporo,
HMA = Hiroshima, and YS = Yushan.
Figure 3. Ordination diagram for the RDA analysis for soil fauna
distribution and environmental factors in East Asia. The (a), (b), and
(c) present the overall, phytophage, and predacity soli fauna orders,
respectively. The blue and red arrows represent environmental factors
and orders, respectively. The red circles, green squares, and blue
diamonds represent temperate, subtropical, and tropical zones,
respectively. In the graphs, MAT = mean annual temperature, MTCM = mean
temperature of the coldest months, EMT= extreme minimum temperature, MAP
= mean annual precipitation, SOC= soil organic carbon, and SBD = soil
bulk density. Climate factors included MAT, MTCM, EMT, and MAP. Soil
factors included SOC and SBD. Order name abbreviations are shown in
Table S2. Note: “*” indicated p ≤ 0.05 and “**” indicated p ≤ 0.01.
Figure 4. Patterns of overall (a), (d), (g), phytophage (b), (e), (h),
and predacity fauna (c), (f), (i) in different sampling sites along the
latitude and soil factor difference in East Asia. Orange dots and lines
represent βj and blue dots and lines represent βs, n = 91; The “*”,
“**”, and “***” represent p ≤ 0.05, 0.01, and 0.001, respectively.
“NS” indicates not significant. (Note: SOC = soil organic carbon, and
SBD = soil bulk density)
Figure 5. Patterns of overall (a), (d), (g), (j), phytophage (b), (e),
(h), (k), and predacity fauna (c), (f), (i), (l), in different sampling
sites along the environmental difference in East Asia. Orange dots and
lines represent βj and blue dots and lines represent βs, n = 91; The
“*”, “**”, and “***” represent p ≤ 0.05, 0.01, and 0.001,
respectively. “NS” indicates non-significant. (Note: MAT = mean annual
temperature, MTCM = mean temperature of the coldest months, EMT =
extreme minimum temperature, MAP = mean annual precipitation)

spatial processes on the Overall (a), Phytophage (b), and Predacity (c)
fauna orders composition in East Asia.
