  • Native Terrestrial Invertebrate Fauna from the Northern Antarctic Peninsula
    86 (1) · April 2014 pp. 1–58 Native terrestrial invertebrate fauna from the northern Antarctic Peninsula: new records, state of current knowledge and ecological preferences – Summary of a German federal study David J. Russell1*, Karin Hohberg1, Mikhail Potapov2, Alexander Bruckner3, Volker Otte1 and Axel Christian 1 Senckenberg Museum of Natural History Görlitz, Postfach 300 154, 02806 Görlitz, Germany 2 Moscow State Pedagogical University, M.Pirogovskaya 1, 119991 Moscow, Russia 3 University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Gregor Mendel-Straße 33, 1180 Vienna, Austria * Corresponding author, e-mail: [email protected] Received 27 February 2014 | Accepted 8 March 2014 Published online at www.soil-organisms.de 1 April 2014 | Printed version 15 April 2014 Abstract The Antarctic terrestrial invertebrate fauna has been intensely studied during the last 120 years. However, due to their difficult accessibility, large regions of terrestrial Antarctica still remain to be investigated soil-zoologically. Some areas that have remained unstudied are now being increasingly visited by, i.e., Antarctic cruise-ship voyages. These sites are therefore becoming available for the expansion of Antarctic soil-zoological research. A study commissioned by the German Federal Environment Agency allowed the investigation of the edaphic fauna in ice-free areas along the routes of touristic cruise ships in the maritime Antarctic. A total of 13 localities around the northern Antarctic Peninsula were studied during the austral summers of 2009/2010 and 2010/2011, many of which had never been investigated regarding their edaphic fauna. Soil-substrate samples were taken and the Nematoda, Collembola and Acari extracted and identified. More than 320,000 individuals and almost 100 species were recorded.
