ΟΙΚΟΛΟΓΙΑ ΕΔΑΦΙΚΩΝ ΑΡΘΡΟΠΟΔΩΝ ΝΗΣΙΩΤΙΚΩΝ ΟΙΚΟΣΥΣΤΗΜΑΤΩΝ ΦΡΥΓΑΝΙΩΝ ΚΑΙ ΥΠΟΒΑΘΜΙΣΜΕΝΟΥ ΜΑΚΙ (Ν. ΝΑΞΟΣ-ΚΥΚΛΑΔΕΣ)

THE PURPOSE OF THIS THESIS IS THE STUDY OF THE ECOLOGY OF SOIL ARTHROPODS, IN TWO INSULAR ECOSYSTEMS OF DEGRADED MAQUIS (QUERCUS COCCIFERA, PISTACIA LENTISCUS) AND PHRYGANIC (THUMUS CAPITATUS, GENISTAACANTHOCLADA) VEGETATION, AND MORE CONCRETELY: THE STUDY OF THE STRUCTURE OF THE COMMUNITIES OF SOIL ARTHROPODS IN THE TWO BIOTOPES OF MAQUIS AND PHRYGANA ON THE ISLAND OF NAXOS IN THE CYCLADES (1984-87). THE STUDY OF THE STRUCTURE WAS BASED ON THE TEST: 1) OF THEIR NATURAL STRUCTURE, I.E. THEIR HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL DISTRIBUTION, AS WELL AS THEIR PHENOLOGY DURING DIFFERENT SEASONS. 2) OF THEIR BIOLOGICAL STRUCTURE, I.E. OF THEIR COMPOSITION OF THE FAUNA, OF RELATIVE ABUNDANCE, OF PREDOMINANCE, OF THE PHENOMENA OF SUCCESSION AND THE INTERACTION BETWEEN THE DIFFERENT GROUPS AND SPECIES. TWENTY-THREE TAXONOMIC GROUPS WERE CONTAINED IN THE FAUNA COMPOSITION OF THE COMMUNITIES . THE GROUPS OF TRUE FLIES, PSEUDOSCORPIONS, SPIDERS, THRIPS BRISTLE-TAILS AND PSOCIDS DOMINATE AND CHARACTERIZE THE TWO BIOTOPES. THE COMMUNITIES OF SOIL ARTHROPODS WERE DISTINGUISHED BY STABILITY AND HAVE INTENSE MEDITERRANEAN CHARACTERISTICS, AS MUCH ON THE LEVEL OF FAUNA COMPOSITION, AS IN THE SPATIAL AND TEMPORAL DISTRIBUTION PATTERNS. THE DETERMINANT LIMITING FACTOR OF THE DISTRIBUTION PATTERN IS TEMPERATURE, TO WHICH THE MOST OF THE SOIL ARTHROPODS ARE NEGATIVELY CORRELATED AT A STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT LEVEL.
