60 soil samples from Southern Chile, mainly from forests and grassland, yielded six species of myxobacteria. In forest soils Myxococcus coralloides and Myxococcus fulvus occur frequently, in grassland soils Myxococcus coralloides and Archangium gephyra are predominating. Myxococcus virescens, Melittangium lichenicola, and Cytobacter fuscus have been observed rarely. It is pointed out that due to climate factors a high soil acidity causes the low nuber of myxobacter species. A comparison with the number of species in substrates from important plant formations over various climates is given.
来自智利南部的60份土壤样本（主要取自森林和草原）分离出了6种黏细菌。在森林土壤中，珊瑚状黏球菌和黄褐黏球菌较为常见；在草原土壤中，珊瑚状黏球菌和桥接原囊菌占主导地位。绿色黏球菌、地衣蜂房菌和暗褐细胞杆菌则较为罕见。研究指出，由于气候因素导致土壤酸度较高，使得黏细菌物种数量较少。文中还给出了不同气候条件下重要植物群落基质中物种数量的比较。
