        The housing facade shows the social, economic, and cultural characteristics of its inhabitants through the complex system of "signs" and it forms a stereotyped image in the audience`s mind. On the other hand, people with lower socioeconomic status are constantly being stigmatized. This study aims to find the relationship between the objective factors of the residential facade and the stigma. In this regard, residential facades of Tehran's District 4 were investigated using a compound research method. First, theoretical bases and the conceptual framework of the research were compiled by the library method. Then, using a survey method, 40 residential facade images were judged in terms of the perception of the income group of their inhabitants by 203 citizens. Also, a questionnaire containing residential facade visual factors was presented to the citizens to assess their impact on the perception of the prestige of the building. The factor analysis of the data provided five effective factors in the perceived prestige of the house facade: 1)    Design of the Facade: This is the factor that determines the first and determines the perceived validity of the residential view. It can be defined as follows: The design factorsare the design of the walls of the building, the lighting of the facade and the design of the balcony. With these three faces, they upgrade a residential prestige in terms of design. 2)    Building Dimensions and Detail of facade: One of the value aspects of housing is the dimensions and details of the facade, due to the decorations and details of the materials, the width of the facade (the ground) and its height and cleanliness. The facade is provided. It is deduced that clearness is due to its influence on the perception of details of materials and decorations in this group. Therefore, to be considered a housing facade of residents of high socio-economic class, attention to the dimensions and details of the facade and its elements is necessary. 3)    Material and Opening: This factor is obtained through the shape of the window, the color of the glass, the shape of the input, and the kind of the material. Therefore, the materials and shapes of openings play an important role in shaping the perceived value of a home. 4)    Balcony feature: This factor is provided with the presence of the balcony and its dimensions and the darkness and illumination of the materials. So, for facade accreditation, attention should also be paid to the balcony features. 5)    Visual disturbance: Visual disturbance is achieved by factors such as window count, imbalance, and artificial adjoining elements. This factor is the last in shaping the perceived credibility of a viewpoint that has been taken into consideration by citizens in value judgments. The images were also categorized into five faces by the respondents, thereafter a final analysis and strategies for reducing the stigma of the lower group housing were presented. This research can be a step in creating social interactions between different income groups in heterogeneous neighborhoods. Manuscript profile

        Introduction : Species diversity is one of the most significant indicators of changes in ecosystems. Due to their nutritional diversity, abundance, and ubiquity, mites can be a good representative of arthropods in the soil. Whereas Mesostigmatic mites are the largest in terms of number and distribution in Parasitiformes and are able to live among different terrestrial habitats, they can be of great ecological importance. Therefore, the diversity of stigmatic mites from the Macrochelidae family was studied in 2016 in Shiraz.Material and Methods : A total number of eight species of two genera belonging to the Macrochelidae family was identified and collected from 12 plant hosts in the parks of Shiraz. The highest number of samples was collected in spring and autumn. The highest to lowest samples were collected in October and July, respectively. Among the plant hosts, Piracanta with 109 samples and pine with 33 samples had the highest to lowest hosts, respectively. Biodiversity was calculated with Shannon-Wiener, Simpson, Margalf, Pete, Manhink indices using Past 4.02 and Spss23 softwareDiscussion : Macrocheles glaber (Muller, 1860) with 170 specimens (22%) and Glyptholaspis confusa (Foa) with 17 specimens (2.2%) had the highest and lowest frequencies, respectively.Result :  The highest values of Simpson index 0.8553 and Shannon 1.985 are related to winter, and the lowest values are 0.8235 and 1.834, respectively, related to summer while the Manning coefficient is 0.7 and the Margalf coefficient 1.315 and they are the lowest values in summer. The highest coefficients of Simpson and Shannon which are 0.8617 and 2.021 respectively, can be seen in Azadi Park.  Manuscript profile

        Biodiversity is an expression of the biological community and ecosystem levels of organized life, Mesostigmata are the predators of small arthropods and nematodes in soil habitats, Quality and quantity of the species and number each individual depending on soil and vegetation management strategies or the presence of other disorders such as human activities. In this study, soil quality studied with indicators of biodiversity in a 52 Hectare park in the north east of Tehran. The location divided to the 7 areas that was representative of vegetation and geographical location, regular sampling of the soil areas performed as a year. The total number of mites was 6167 belonging to 80 species. Species diversity in areas 1-7 and the whole area using Simpsons index of diversity and Shannon-Wiener index, species richness with Menhinicks index and Margalefs diversity index and evenness with Peet and Hill was calculated. The highest and lowest species diversity observed in   areas 1 and 3, respectively, which correlated with soil moisture, pH and diversity of vegetation and management practices applied on the soil. The greatest species diversity in the region in the third quarter and the lowest species diversity were observed in the first quarter of the year, which is consistent with weather conditions and soil moisture. To determine correlations between each indicator of species richness and diversity with both evenness index in each sampling point the Pearson test was used. Manuscript profile

        Species diversity is one of the most important indicators of changes in ecosystems. This subject always considered as a significant point in ecosystem. Mesotigmatid mites are the largest order among Parasitiformes mites. The main purpose of this survey was evaluating of species diversity of mites among Mesotigmata during the 2018 in Shiraz city. In each region, 2 habitats of urban green space (Landscape) trees and orchard trees were selected. Continuous soil sampling was performed every 2 weeks. A total of 1252 specimens belonging to 22 species from 11 families and 8 host plant were collected. Calculation of biodiversity indices based on species abundance and data analysis using Simpson, Shannon-Wiener, Pete, Manning and Margalf indices, using Microsoft Excel 2016 was calculated. Our finding shower that biological indicators are significantly different according to vegetation and sampling seasons. Based on LSD test to compare indices in different seasons of the year, spring with 0.913 Simpson indices, Shannon-Wiener 2.569, Pete 0.9482, and Margalf 2.815 had the highest values while in the index. Also according to this test, green space had the highest indices with 0.837 Simpson, 2.154 Shannon-Wiener, 1.362 Manning and 2.55.  the highest diversity observed relative frequency with 54.04% belonged to the Laelapidae family.
