Global fine-resolution data on springtail abundance and community structure [PDF]
Springtails (Collembola) inhabit soils from the Arctic to the Antarctic and comprise an estimated ~32% of all terrestrial arthropods on Earth. Here, we present a global, spatially-explicit database on springtail communities that includes 249,912 ...

Impact of size and shape in the transport of microplastics by a springtail species [PDF]
We investigated the impact of shape (beads, fibers and films) and size (0.5 and 1.0 mm; diameter or length) of polypropylene microplastics (MPs) on MP transport by a springtail species, Folsomia candida in dishes.

Specialized adaptations for springtail predation in Mesozoic beetles [PDF]
Insects exhibit a variety of morphological specializations specific to particular behaviors, and these permit the reconstruction of palaeobiological traits.

Development of a barcoding database for the UK Collembola: early results [PDF]
We report early results from a project to accumulate COI barcodes from UK Collembola to confirm taxonomy and explore their status at an international level. We validated COI sequences for 48 species of Collembola, ranging from 335–670 bp.

POSTHARVEST TREATMENT OF CELERY APIUM GRAVEOLENS USING ESSENTIAL OILS AND COLD TREATMENT TO CONTROL SPRINGTAILS HYPOGASTRURA VERNALIS (COLLEMBOLA: HYPOGASTRURIDAE) [PDF]
Australia produces celery (Apium graveolens var. dulce) for both home and international markets. Celery can be exported to other countries after postharvest treatment, which terminates springtail infestation.
