Smart Skin Patterns Protect Springtails

PLoS ONE, 2011
Springtails, arthropods who live in soil, in decaying material, and on plants, have adapted to demanding conditions by evolving extremely effective and robust anti-adhesive skin patterns. However, details of these unique properties and their structural basis are still unknown. Here we demonstrate that collembolan skin can resist wetting by many organic

Is ornithogenic fertilisation important for collembolan communities in Arctic terrestrial ecosystems? [PDF]

, 2015
In the Arctic, areas close to seabird colonies are often characterized by exceptionally rich vegetation communities linked with the high nutrient subsidies transported by seabirds from the marine environment to the land.

How the small host the small: cryptogam trait‐mediated structuring of Antarctic microarthropod communities

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Primary producers shape terrestrial biodiversity, but most research has focused on vascular plants, while the role of cryptogams (mosses, lichens and algae) remains under‐explored. Cryptogams dominate Antarctic vegetation and support diverse microarthropod communities. However, how cryptogam traits influence these communities remains poorly understood.
