The Fauna of Springtails (Collembola) from the Forest Ecosystems of South-East Ukraine
The fauna of springtails (Collembola) was investigated for seven years in natural forest ecosystems of the Donetsk highland, namely in gully forests, flood-land forests and highland woods. The list of Collembola of forest habitats of the eastern Ukraine has been compiled basing on the original and l...

Digital Library of Periodicals of National Academy of Sciences of UkraineРезюме: | The fauna of springtails (Collembola) was investigated for seven years in natural forest ecosystems of the Donetsk highland, namely in gully forests, flood-land forests and highland woods. The list of Collembola of forest habitats of the eastern Ukraine has been compiled basing on the original and literature data. It includes 115 species belonging to 52 genera and 16 families. The core of the fauna of Collembola in investigated forests is formed by such families as Entomobryidae, Onychiuridae and Isotomidae. Eight zoogeographical complexes of species were defined by the authors. The European, the Holarctic and the cosmopolitan complexes predominate in the number of species. Species richness, representation of ecological groups, life forms and Collembola hygromorphs differ in the three types of forests investigated. Most of the biotopes are characterized by the predominance of forest species, the considerable representation of eurybionts as well as meadow and steppe forms of species, the predominance of upper-litter biomorphs and a wide spectrum of hygromorphs. The ecological-faunistic peculiarities of springtails ecosystems reflect the specifics of forest microclimate in steppe and can be used for zoodiagnostics of natural and artifical forests. |
