Diversity of terrestrial tardigrades (Tardigrada) in Lithuania
Tardigrades (Tardigrada) are small water-dwelling invertebrates found almoust everywhere around the world in water and terrestrial habitats, even in Artic and Antartic. In this study diversity and distribution of terrestrial tardigrades (Tardigrada) were investigated in mosses and lichen (X. parieti...
