Springboards for springtails [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2002
Travel to overseas destinations is possible even for certain tiny land invertebrates. Although they cannot fly, the ocean is not an insuperable barrier because they can survive for longish periods in sea water.

Thermophilization over space but not time among communities of ground‐dwelling arthropods in a desert city

open access: yesEcology, Volume 107, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Thermophilization of communities, or shifts in composition favoring more warm‐adapted species, over time and space is a common response to warming from global climate change and localized effects of land‐use change. However, the interplay between community thermophilization driven by temporal warming in global climate and spatial warming in ...

The mitochondrial genome of the springtail Bourletiella arvalis (Symphypleona, Collembola)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
The complete mitochondrial genome of the springtail Bourletiella arvalis (Fitch, 1863) is herein described and applied to a Bayesian phylogenetic analysis, inclusive of all the Collembola mitochondrial DNAs sequenced so far.

High‐quality litter drives a stronger home‐field advantage of leaf decomposition in young plantations

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 97-112, January 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Home‐field advantage (HFA) describes the tendency of litter to decompose accelerated in its native habitat than in other environments. Although the interactions between soil fauna and microbial communities during litter decomposition are well documented, the specific ...

Small-scale variations in spider and springtail assemblages between termite mounds and the surrounding grassland matrix [PDF]

open access: yesAfrican Invertebrates
The snouted harvester termite (Trinervitermes trinervoides (Sjöstedt, 1911)) is a widespread grass-eating termite species that constructs thermoregulated dome-shaped mounds.

Testing use of mitochondrial COI sequences for the identification and phylogenetic analysis of New Zealand caddisflies (Trichoptera) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We tested the hypothesis that cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (COI) sequences would successfully discriminate recognised species of New Zealand caddisflies. We further examined whether phylogenetic analyses, based on the COI locus, could recover currently
