to subterranean environments. We review four such habitats-shallow<br />
interstitial habitats, seeps (hypotelminorheic), epikarst, and milieu<br />
souterrain superficiel (MSS). For each habitat type, we review<br />
information on environmental variability (especially detailed temporal<br />
temperature profiles), species composition, and general aspects of<br />
morphology of stygobionts and troglobionts in the habitat. The sites<br />
reviewed showed temperature variation throughout the year although<br />
variation was less than that of surface sites. Many showed seasonal and<br />
daily variation as well. Epikarst drips were the least variable and seeps<br />
the most variable. Numbers of troglobiotic and stygobiotic species in<br />
SSHs ranged from seven in seeps near Washington, DC and MSS sites in<br />
southern France to 14 in epikarst drips in Županova jama in Slovenia.<br />
Most SSH sites also had species apparently specialized for these habitat<br />
types, as well as generalist species. An analysis of the subterranean<br />
amphipod genus Stygobromus indicated that species from epikarst and<br />
seep sites showed no differences in the level of troglomorphy compared<br />
to cave species in the same lineages. These results suggest that the<br />
primary selective factor in the evolution of troglomorphy is darkness, not<br />
lack of food or seasonality. SSHs hold considerable promise as<br />
repositories of subterranean biodiversity and as evolutionary laboratories<br />
for the study of adaptation. http://www.icsb<strong>2010</strong>.net/<br />

832, "Remarks. The pseudoscorpions in France, both cave-dwelling and<br />
epigean, are scarcely known (Harvey, 1990). This is particularly due to<br />
the fact that they have been neglected during faunistic studies, and that<br />
pseudoscorpionologists in France are diminishing in number in an<br />
exponential manner. Moreover, the names of a number of these arachnids<br />
are synonyms".<br />

http://dx.doi.org/10.2298/ABS1003811C. ABS: Most<br />
subterranean pseudoscorpions are concentrated in regions with a<br />
Mediterranean climate. Although data on the abundance of<br />
pseudoscorpion species in the humid tropics are lacking, preliminary<br />
observations suggest that the number of species is greater in the<br />
Mediterranean area than in tropical rain forests. Speciation in<br />
pseudoscorpions has not been studied in great detail. New taxa are<br />
constantly being described. Exact data on the different niche preferences<br />
which are a prerequisite for evolutionary studies are available for only a<br />
few cases. The pseudoscorpions are not particularly suitable for genetic<br />
investigations due to their extended generation times. The cave-dwelling<br />
forms of the genus Neobisium L. Koch comprise many phyletic lines,<br />
some less specialized and others highly adapted to cave life. To trace<br />
their origin, biogeography and evolution, it is necessary to compare the<br />
evidence about troglobitic species with that of the epigean forms from<br />
different European habitats, especially in the Mediterranean or Dinaric<br />
regions. To the south of the river Zrmanja, up to the lower Neretva valley,<br />
a massive Holokarst region rises to a considerably height. Many summits<br />
attain between 1800 and 2000 m, and Mt. Dinara gave its name to both<br />
the Dinaric region and the Dinaric Karst. The karst of Mt. Mosor (and<br />
Mts. Kozjak and Biokovo), is quite different from that previously<br />
discussed. This is a zone of younger, intensively folded mountains. Their<br />

Hyporheic annelid distribution along a flow permanence<br />
gradient in an alluvial river. Aquatic Sciences - Research<br />
Across Boundaries 72(3, June):335-346. DOI:<br />
http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00027-010-0139-6. ABS: In this<br />
study, we examined hyporheic annelid assemblages along a gradient of<br />
flow permanence (FP) and compared assemblages in gaining<br />
(groundwater-fed) and losing (runoff-fed) sections of the alluvial Selwyn<br />
River, New Zealand. To reduce the effects of poor taxonomic resolution,<br />
we used a dataset with most taxa identified to the genus or species level.<br />
We predicted that annelid assemblages would vary in structure and<br />
composition along FP gradients due to differences in desiccation<br />
resistance between taxa. We also predicted that groundwater-fed<br />
(gaining) and runoff-fed (losing) river sections would be inhabitated by<br />
dissimilar annelid assemblages due to differences in river-aquifer<br />
connections and recolonization sources. We found a negative relationship<br />
between taxon richness and FP, indicating that, on average, two annelid<br />
taxa are lost from hyporheic assemblages in the Selwyn River with every<br />
10% decrease in FP. Low FP appears to favour annelid taxa that tolerate<br />
moist or dry conditions in sediments, as shown by a negative relationship<br />
between FP and the proportion of desiccation-tolerant taxa. A high<br />
proportion of hypogean taxa distinguished the groundwater-fed and<br />
perennial-gaining reach from the other reaches. In spite of the large<br />
differences in physical structure between the intermittent-gaining and the<br />
ephemeral-losing reach, we found few between-reach differences in<br />
annelid assemblages and, in particular, no differences in % hypogean<br />
taxa. These varied results illustrate the need to employ both categorical<br />
and continuous variables in ecological analyses: the combined categorical<br />
and gradient approach used in the present study is likely to explain more<br />
variability than either univariate approach alone. KW: Oligochaetes,<br />
