Published online at www.arthropod-systematics.de on 21.vii.2011. > Abstract The tribe Leptodirini of the beetle family Leiodidae is one of the most diverse radiations of cave animals, with a distribution centred north of the Mediterranean basin from the Iberian Peninsula to Iran. Six genera outside this core area, most notably Platycholeus Horn, 1880 in the western United States and others in East Asia, have been assumed to be related to Lepto- dirini. -

In pristine natural springs with permanent flow, water mites are nearly always present and usually display high diversity. This study aimed to determine whether significant differences in water mite assemblages between rheocrene (river-forming springs with dominant riffle habitats) and limnocrene (lake-forming springs with dominant pool habitats) karst springs could be detected in terms of species richness, diversity and abundance, but also in different ratios of specific synecological groups: crenobiont (exclusively found in springs), crenophilous (associated with springs) and stygophilous (associated with groundwater) water mite taxa. Our research was carried out on four limnocrenes and four rheocrenes in the Dinaric karst region of Croatia. Seasonal samples (20 sub-samples per sampling) were taken at each spring with a 200-µm net, taking into consideration all microhabitat types with coverage of at least 5%. -

Ecological Studies 235 Oana Teodora Moldovan L’ubomír Kováč Stuart Halse Editors Cave Ecology Chapter 10 Historical and Ecological Factors Determining Cave Diversity Ignacio Ribera, Alexandra Cieslak, Arnaud Faille, and Javier Fresneda 10.1 Introductory Background In this chapter, we do not aim to review the historical views on the origin and evolution of cave fauna, of which there are several excellent accounts (see, e.g. Bellés 1987; Culver et al. 1995; Romero 2009; Culver and Pipan 2014), but to try to understand the origin of some persistent ideas that have traditionally shaped the study of the subterranean fauna and its diversity and that still have a recognisable influence. We will mostly refer to terrestrial fauna and mostly to the groups with which we are most familiar through our own work (Coleoptera Leiodidae and Carabidae), which are also the ones with the highest diversity in the subterranean environment. For the evolution of the stygobiontic fauna, see, e.g. Marmonier et al. (1993), Culver et al. (1995), Danielopol et al. (2000), Lefébure et al. (2006) or Trontelj et al. (2009). The origins of most of the current views on the evolution of the subterranean fauna can be traced back to Emil Racovitza and René Jeannel (e.g. Racovitza 1907; Jeannel 1926, 1943), which were the first to document extensively and systemati- cally the diverse fauna of the European caves. They were strongly influenced by the earlier work of North American biospeleologists (e.g. Packard 1888), but they reframed their ideas according to the evolutionary views prevalent in the first decades of the twentieth century. -
