Biodiversity and Coarse Woody Debris in Southern Forests

Conservation of biodiversity is emerging as a major goal in the management of forest ecosystems. The implied objective is the conservation of a full complement of native species and communities within the forest ecosystem. Effective implementation of conservation measures will require a broader knowledge of the dimensions of biodiversity, the contributions of various ecosystem components to those dimensions, and the impact of management practices.In a workshop held in Athens, GA, October 18-20, 1993, we focused on an ecosystem component, coarse woody debris (CWD), and its impact on the biodiversity of organisms in southern forests. Coarse woody debris is one ecosystem element readily amenable to management. The generation of CWD, its accumulation on forest floors, and its distribution are functions of stand age and management in the South. In contrast to other regions, comparatively little is known about the importance of CWD in southern forests. Harmon and others (1986) addressed CWD dynamics, input, distribution, and importance for forested ecosystems in general and North America in particular. In that review the dearth of information on CWD in southern forests, especially southern pine forests, was evident. Conclusions about the impacts and of CWD based on experience in the pacific Northwest are unlikely to be appropriate for southern forests, because climate, growth responses, CWD production and decomposition, and management practices are dissimilar.

“…The tribe Lobellini is a large group consisting of 17 genera and more than 160 species, mainly from Southeast Asia, East Asia, and the Australian-Oceania region (Bellinger et al 1996(Bellinger et al -2022. Although most of the species of the tribe have monochromatic body colors, collembolans with bi-or tri-color bodies have been found in three genera and six species, namely Paralobella orousseti, Telobella bicincta (Cassagnau & Deharveng, 1984), T. bicolor (Cassagnau & Deharveng, 1984), T. monocincta (Cassagnau & Deharveng, 1984), T. punctata (Cassagnau & Deharveng, 1984), and Lobella palmeri (Wray, 1967) (Table 4). To the best of our knowledge, no collembolans with bi-colored body have been reported in Crossodonthina; thus, C. elegans sp.…”

We describe a new species of Collembola, Crossodonthina elegans sp. nov., collected from Yonaguni-jima, southwest Japan. This new species differs from other known congeners because it has an unusual white or yellow color pattern on Ant. I and Th. I. It is similar to C. laterisensillata Ohira, Kataoka, Tanooka & Nakamori, 2022, in the structure of mouthparts, 3 + 3 eyes, cephalic chaeta O present, and tubercles De and Dl separated on Abd. V. However, it is easily distinguished from the latter species to maxilla without ciliated lamella, cephalic tubercle Dl separated from L and So, 5 chaetae of tubercle L on Abd. I and III, and macrochaetae apically rounded. We provide the key to all species of the genus and discuss the unique color pattern of the new species among the tribe Lobellini.
