Can snow depth be used to predict the distribution of the high Arctic aphid Acyrthosiphon svalbardicum (Hemiptera: Aphididae) on Spitsbergen?

Ávila Jiménez, María Luisa; Coulson, Stephen James (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-10-13)

Background: The Svalbard endemic aphid Acyrthosiphon svalbardicum (Heikinheimo, 1968) is host specific to Dryas octopetala L. ssp octopetala (Rosaceae). It has been hypothesized that the aphid is present on those areas ...
High Arctic Invertebrate Biogeography. Patterns and Colonization Processes since the Last Glacial Maximum

Ávila Jiménez, María Luisa (Doctoral thesis, 2011-09-22)

The biogeography of Arctic terrestrial invertebrate species, and particularly processes creating and determining patterns of species distribution, have rarely been considered as a whole, but rather on a regional basis, ...
A Holarctic Biogeographical Analysis of the Collembola (Arthropoda, Hexapoda) Unravels Recent Post-Glacial Colonization Patterns

Ávila Jiménez, María Luisa; Coulson, Stephen James (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-06-29)

We aimed to describe the main Arctic biogeographical patterns of the Collembola, and analyze historical factors and current climatic regimes determining Arctic collembolan species distribution. Furthermore, we aimed to ...
