Tardigrades in leaf litter were collected from beech forests on Roan Mountain (TN, U.S.A.) and Modenese Apennine (Italy) at different altitudes and during different seasons. Twenty-six species of eutardigrades and 6 species of heterotardigrades were found on Room Mountain and 20 species of eutardigrades on Apennine. In both cases the tardigrade communities showed great biodiversity and a similar species composition, represented by hygrophilous and eurytypic taxa. Differences in the number of specimens and the species composition were found, related to substrate layers, altitudes and seasons.
