Summary:Data on the occurrence of Eupodes angardi Strandtmann & Semme, Tydeus erebw Strandtmann (Acari, Prostigmata), and Crypropygus sverdrupi Lawrence (Collembola) in Gjelsvikfjella and Miihlig- Hofmannfjella, as well as of Maudheimia wilsoni Dalenius (Acari, Cryptostigmata) in H.U. SverdruFWjella and Gjelsvikfjella are presented. The four species differ in their distribution. While E. angardi, C. sverdrupi and M. wilsoni may be limited to central mountain ranges in Dronning Maud Land, T. erebus has been reported from 55"W to 8O"E on the Antarctic Continent.
