Unexpected Diversity in Neelipleona Revealed by Molecular Phylogeny Approach (Hexapoda, Collembola)
S O I L O R G A N I S M S Volume 83 (3) 2011 pp. 383–398 ISSN: 1864-6417 Unexpected diversity in Neelipleona revealed by molecular phylogeny approach (Hexapoda, Collembola) Clément Schneider1, 3, Corinne Cruaud2 and Cyrille A. D’Haese1 1 UMR7205 CNRS, Département Systématique et Évolution, Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle, CP50 Entomology, 45 rue Buffon, 75231 Paris cedex 05, France 2 Genoscope, Centre National de Sequençage, 2 rue G. Crémieux, CP5706, 91057 Evry cedex, France 3 Corresponding author: Clément Schneider (email: [email protected]) Abstract Neelipleona are the smallest of the four Collembola orders in term of species number with 35 species described worldwide (out of around 8000 known Collembola). Despite this apparent poor diversity, Neelipleona have a worldwide repartition. The fact that the most commonly observed species, Neelus murinus Folsom, 1896 and Megalothorax minimus Willem, 1900, display cosmopolitan repartition is striking. A cladistic analysis based on 16S rDNA, COX1 and 28S rDNA D1 and D2 regions, for a broad collembolan sampling was performed. This analysis included 24 representatives of the Neelipleona genera Neelus Folsom, 1896 and Megalothorax Willem, 1900 from various regions. The interpretation of the phylogenetic pattern and number of transformations (branch length) indicates that Neelipleona are more diverse than previously thought, with probably many species yet to be discovered. These results buttress the rank of Neelipleona as a whole order instead of a Symphypleona family. Keywords: Collembola, Neelidae, Megalothorax, Neelus, COX1, 16S, 28S 1. Introduction 1.1. Brief history of Neelipleona classification The Neelidae family was established by Folsom (1896), who described Neelus murinus from Cambridge (USA). -
Why Are There So Many Exotic Springtails in Australia? a Review
90 (3) · December 2018 pp. 141–156 Why are there so many exotic Springtails in Australia? A review. Penelope Greenslade1, 2 1 Environmental Management, School of School of Health and Life Sciences, Federation University, Ballarat, Victoria 3353, Australia 2 Department of Biology, Australian National University, GPO Box, Australian Capital Territory 0200, Australia E-mail: [email protected] Received 17 October 2018 | Accepted 23 November 2018 Published online at www.soil-organisms.de 1 December 2018 | Printed version 15 December 2018 DOI 10.25674/y9tz-1d49 Abstract Native invertebrate assemblages in Australia are adversely impacted by invasive exotic plants because they are replaced by exotic, invasive invertebrates. The reasons have remained obscure. The different physical, chemical and biotic characteristics of the novel habitat seem to present hostile conditions for native species. This results in empty niches. It seems the different ecologies of exotic invertebrate species may be better adapted to colonise these novel empty niches than native invertebrates. Native faunas of other southern continents that possess a highly endemic fauna, such as South America, South Africa and New Zealand, may have suffered the same impacts from exotic species but insufficient survey data and unreliable and old taxonomy makes this uncertain. Here I attempt to discover what particular characteristics of these novel habitats are hostile to native invertebrates. I chose the Collembola as a target taxon. They are a suitable group because the Australian collembolan fauna consists of a high percentage of endemic taxa, but also exotic, non-native, species. Most exotic Collembola species in Australia appear to have originated from Europe, where they occur at low densities (Fjellberg 1997, 2007). -
Checklist of Springtails (Collembola) from the Republic of Moldova
Travaux du Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle © Décembre Vol. LIII pp. 149–160 «Grigore Antipa» 2010 DOI: 10.2478/v10191-010-0011-x CHECKLIST OF SPRINGTAILS (COLLEMBOLA) FROM THE REPUBLIC OF MOLDOVA GALINA BUªMACHIU Abstract. The checklist of Collembola from the Republic of Moldova including 223 species is presented. The list is based on literature sources and personal collecting. Résumé. Ce travail présente la liste des 223 espèces de collemboles de la République de Moldova. Cette liste fut réalisée en utilisant des références littéraires et des collections personnelles. Key words: Collembola, checklist, Republic of Moldova. INTRODUCTION The records on Collembola from the Republic of Moldova started about 50 years ago with the first two species included by Martynova in “The key to insects of the European part of the USSR. Collembola” (1964). Some more information on species diversity of Collembola from the soil of Moldavian vineyards was included in Stegãrescu’s work (1967). During the last twenty years, this group has been studied more systematically, with more than 200 species recorded (Buºmachiu 2001, 2004, 2006 a, b, 2008). Since 2002, eleven species new to science were described from the Republic of Moldova by da Gama & Buºmachiu (2002, 2004); Buºmachiu & Deharveng (2008) and Buºmachiu & Weiner (2008). Until now, the faunistic data on Collembola from the Republic of Moldova have not been summarised in the form of a checklist. The present paper includes the complete list of Collembola from the Republic of Moldova using the modern nomenclature. Totally, 223 species are listed. Some problematic and dubious species, such as Pseudanurida clysmae Jackson, 1927, Onychiurus fimetarius (Linnaeus, 1758) and Orchesella divergens Handschin, 1929 recorded by Stegãrescu (1967) and Pseudosinella wahlgrei Börner, 1907, are not included in the list. -

Ecosphere 9(10):e02463. 10.1002/ecs2.2463 Abstract. In forest ecosystems, disturbances that cause tree mortality create canopy gaps, increase growth of understory vegetation, and alter the abiotic environment. These impacts may have interacting effects on populations of ground-dwelling invertebrates that regulate ecological processes such as decom- position and nutrient cycling. A manipulative experiment was designed to decouple effects of simultane- ous disturbances to the forest canopy and ground-level vegetation to understand their individual and combined impacts on ground-dwelling invertebrate communities. We quantified invertebrate abundance, richness, diversity, and community composition via pitfall traps in response to a factorial combination of two disturbance treatments: canopy gap formation via girdling and understory vegetation removal. For- mation of gaps was the primary driver of changes in invertebrate community structure, increasing activity- abundance and taxonomic richness, while understory removal had smaller effects. -

Collembola: Actors of Soil Life
Collembola: actors of soil life Auteurs : 02-05-2019 Encyclopédie de l'environnement 1/9 Généré le 01/10/2021 An unsuspected diversity of invertebrates swarms under our feet when we walk on the ground in a forest, meadow or garden. Invisible communities are active in the soil as in a parallel world, with the difference that this world is very real and well connected to the above ground level. It is indeed essential to plants that grow above it. Among the invertebrates living in the soil, Collembola (or springtails) are important because of their abundance and therefore their ability to impact the functioning of an entire ecosystem. They have a wide variety of forms and live in a wide variety of habitats. Their main role is to regulate the microorganisms responsible for the decomposition of organic matter and the recycling of nutrients that will be used by plants for their development. Unfortunately, many human activities can affect the communities of Collembola. These include, for example, soil pollution by metals, pesticides, etc., but also human practices such as the introduction of exotic plants or the use of waste to fertilize the soil. 1.

There are 474 described extant Collembola species known from Canada, a significant change compared to the 520 species estimated to occur in Canada in 1979 (Richards 1979) and the 341 reported in the most recent national checklist (Skidmore 1993). Given the number of indeterminate or cryptic species records, the dearth of sampling in many regions, and the growing use of genetic biodiversity assessment methods such as Barcode Index Numbers, we estimate the total diversity of Collembola in Canada to be approximately 675 species. Advances in Collembola systematics and Canadian research are discussed. Keywords biodiversity assessment, Biota of Canada, Collembola, springtails Collembola, commonly known as springtails, is a class of small, entognathous, wing- less hexapods that is a sister group to Insecta. -

Classical taxonomic approaches, complemented by molecular tools, are improving our understanding of the systematic relationships of some species, changing the nomenclature of taxa and challenging the taxonomic status of others. The springtail Friesea grisea has previously been described as the only species with a “pan-Antarctic” distribution. However, recent genetic comparisons have pointed to another scenario. The latest morphological study has confined F. grisea to the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia, from which it was originally described, and resurrected F. antarctica as a congeneric species occurring on the continental mainland.
