Protura and molecular phylogenetics: status quo of a young love
Soil Organisms, 2011 Protura are among the latecomers to molecular phylogenetics. The first sequences were published about a decade ago; since then relatively little additional data has been collected. Nonetheless, the available molecular phylogenetic analyses have provided

Nienna chukotka sp. nov. (Protura, Acerentomidae, Nipponentominae) from the Arctic region, with a key to species of the genus [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2019 A new species of Nienna was collected in the most northern part of the Palearctic, inside the Arctic Circle. In possessing seta Pc on tergite VII and sternites VI–VII and a very long foretarsal sensillum a, Nienna chukotka sp. nov.

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 6, November–December 2025.By analyzing > 1200 eDNA samples with different markers amplifying arthropods, we show that generalist and specific markers produce correlated pictures of community variation; still specific markers provide a more accurate measure of biodiversity and of its response to environmental stressors.

Identification and character analysis of the Acerentomidae (Protura) of the northeastern Palearctic (Protura: Acerentomidae) [PDF]
Zootaxa, 2014 This paper is a summary of proturan fauna from Siberia and the Russian Far East, collectively termed the northeastern Palearctic. Special attention is given to the analysis of Acerentomidae, which is extraordinarily diverse in these regions (31 species). A key to species and a brief exposition of distribution of each genus are provided. A redescription

A new species of Acerentulus Berlese, 1908 (Protura, Acerentomata, Acerentomidae) from Bulgaria with a revised key to the confinis group [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2019 A new species, Acerentulus bulgaricus sp. nov., belonging to the confinis group, is described from Bulgaria. This species is characterized by long foretarsal sensilla a and b, the posterior position of foretarsal seta δ4, the presence of seta P1a on ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.This study examined the effects of forest operations on soil microarthropod biodiversity and litter decomposition in temperate beech forests, comparing disturbed and undisturbed soils across different harvesting timelines. While litter decomposition remained unaffected, significant soil disturbances were found in areas impacted by machine passage, with

Biodiversity in mountain soils above the treeline
Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 5, Page 1877-1949, October 2025.ABSTRACT Biological diversity in mountain ecosystems has been increasingly studied over the last decade. This is also the case for mountain soils, but no study to date has provided an overall synthesis of the current state of knowledge. Here we fill this gap with a first global analysis of published research on cryptogams, microorganisms, and fauna in ...

Cell junctions in the gut of protura
Tissue and Cell, 1992 The main cell junctions in the intestinal tract of a small group of apterygotan insects, Protura, were examined in conventional thin sections, tracer-infiltrated sections and freeze-fracture replicas. The smooth septate junctions in the midgut of collembolan Tomocerus minor were also studied for comparison.

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 4, Page 555-565, April 2025.The relationship between plant richness and below‐ground multitrophic functionality was stronger in communities with shared plant and soil community history. This work highlights the obscure role of below‐ground consumers on diversity–ecosystem functioning relationships.
