Large‐scale spatial patterns in the distribution of Collembola (Hexapoda) species in Antarctic terrestrial ecosystems
Abstract Aim We tested whether the distribution of three common springtail species ( Gressittacantha terranova , Gomphiocephalus hodgsoni and Friesea grisea ) in Victoria Land (Antarctica) could be modelled as a function of latitude, longitude, altitude and distance from the sea. Location Victoria L...
