Springtails (Hexapoda: Collembola) of some plant communities of the Pechora delta

To the fauna of terrestrial bugs (Heteroptera: Cimicomorpha, Pentatomomorpha) of Altai Krai (Russia) I New data on collembolan fauna of the Karskaya tundra and Polar Urals

“…The existence of Tomocerus sibiricus in the collembolan fauna of the researched territory is quite expected, as previously it was found in the tundra of Vorkuta region [Babenko et al, 2017]. The sixth species, Isotomurus palustris originally described from western Europe is a widespread hydrophile previously found in northeastern Europe only in tidal strips of the Pechora Delta [Taskaeva et al, 2020]. In two more species of Symphypleona, belonging to the genera Sminturus and Dicyrtoma, the species affiliation is doubtful, but the genera are most likely quite adequate.…”

“…Springtails of the East European tundra have been studied quite well [Babenko et al, 2017]. Most of the works on collembolans in this sector is based on materials collected on the Kanin Peninsula, in the Malozemelskaya and Bolshezemelskaya tundras (including the Kolguev, Dolgii and Vaigach Islands) [Babenko et al, 2017;Taskaeva, Nakul, 2017;Taskaeva et al, 2020]. According to these data, the list of springtails in the East European tundra is quite extensive and includes 198 species.…”
