  • Diversity and Abundance of Springtails (Insecta: Collembola) in Native and Restored Tallgrass Prairies
    Am. Midl. Nat. 139:235±242 Diversity and Abundance of Springtails (Insecta: Collembola) in Native and Restored Tallgrass Prairies RAYMOND H. BRAND AND CHRISTOPHER P. DUNN The Morton Arboretum, 4100 Illinois Route 53, Lisle, Illinois 60532-1293 ABSTRACT.ÐThis study suggests that heterotrophic components of prairie ecosystems can be used with autotrophic components to assess the degree to which a restored prairie ap- proaches the biotic complexity of a native prairie. Springtails (Collembola) were collected from prairie vegetation and litter samples from 13 prairie sites (seven native and six restored) located in southwestern Michigan and northeastern Illinois. The diversity and abundance of these insects and the plant and litter biomass were compared. There were 27 different taxa of springtails in the 225 samples collected. Native prairies had the greatest species richness with 26 species. The oldest restored prairie had 17 species. Three common species were Hypogastrura boletivora, Isotoma viridis, and Lepidocyrtus pallidus. Neanura muscorum, Xenylla grisea, and Pseuduosinella rolfsi were rare. Tomocerus ¯avescens was found primarily in native prairies with only one occurrence in the oldest restored prairie in this study. Native prairies and restored prairies of 17 and 24 yr did not differ signi®cantly in numbers of springtails. Differences in springtail numbers did occur, however, between restored prairies of ,6yr and native prairies, and between younger (,6 yr) and older (17 and 26 yr) restored prairies. An analysis of plant and litter biomass indicated signi®cant differences among the prairie sites sampled. These results suggest that all components of the prairie ecosystem are useful for making restoration management decisions.

  • Final Report for Wildlife Preservation Fund Contract # 98-050 to Study the Effect of Burning on Epigeic Springtail Insects of Oak Woodlands Submitted by Raymond H
    June 30, 1998 Final Report for Wildlife Preservation Fund contract # 98-050 to study the effect of burning on epigeic springtail insects of oak woodlands Submitted by Raymond H. Brand The Morton Arboretum Introduction Fire has been used as an effective tool in ecological restoration management for a number of years. Usually, it has been employed to eradicate unwanted exotic plant species that have invaded a native ecosystem . In both prairie and woodland restorations, prescribed burning has become an annual or regular feature of the management protocol . A few studies have focused attention on the effect of burning on arthropod populations as indicated in the references at the end of this report. In this study, comparisons are made of the diversity (richness) and abundance of springtail . insects in the burned and unburned areas of two different woodland sites . One site is the East woods of the Morton Arboretum, a second growth woods of hardwood species (oak, hickory,maple, linden, cherry, etc.), that has been set aside as a natural area since the founding of the arboretum in 1922. Many areas of these woods have become almost entirely composed of maple species . Partly as an experiment in an attempt to maintain a higher diversity of hardwood species, prescribed annual burning for over ten years has been used for a large section of the woods south of the main road (Forest Road) that goes through the woods at the East end of the arboretum . In most areas of the woods there is a closed canopy formed by the mature trees. The other site is known as Lincoln Marsh in Wheaton, Illinois .
