Abstract:

Faunistic studies in the Polish part of the Karkonosze Mts (W Sudetes) have revealed 128 species, including 5 species new to the fauna of the Sudetes and 41 species new to the fauna of the Karkonosze Mts. The total number of Collembola species of the Karkonosze Mts is 145, including species recorded in earlier studies. The author distinguished six zoogeographical elements in the Collembola fauna of the Karkonosze Mts: widely distributed, montane, Boreal-montane, Arctic-montane, Circumpolar and endemic. The fauna of springtails of the Karkonosze Mts is roughly comparable to the fauna of East Sudetes with a relatively high proportion of cavicolous and ripicolous species.
