Abstract

:
We presented a synthesis of Brazilian Entomobryomorpha species and new records of the Brazilian oceanic islands located in the Equatorial Atlantic. In this work, we observed the global distributions of the species that inhabit the Brazilian oceanic islands. We presented distribution maps for all species found on the islands and the closest records on the continent. Our study showed that species that occur in the islands also occur in the American continent, mainly in the neotropical region, or are widespread. We established a new neotype of the first species of Collembola described in Brazil together with a detailed morphological study.

1. Introduction

Entomobryomorpha is the most diverse order of Collembola, with more than 4000 described species in 200 genera, distributed among eight families and four superfamilies: Isotomoidea Schäffer, 1896 [1]; Entomobryoidea Womersley, 1934 [2]; Tomoceroidea Szeptycki, 1979 [3]; Coenaletoidea Soto-Adames et al. 2008 [4]. This order can be found in all biogeographic regions [5].
Among the most diverse families are Isotomidae (Isotomoidea), Entomobryidae andParonellidae (Entomobryoidea). The Isotomidae family Schäffer, 1896, contain four subfamilies, 112 genera and about 1440 species. Entomobryidae is the largest family of Collembola, with about 1900 species in 64 genera. Paronellidae is also distributed worldwide, with about 550 species in 38 genera.
Abrantes et al. 2012 [6] summarized a list of Brazilian Collembola with 102 species of Entomobryomorpha. In this summary, the only species recorded on a Brazilian oceanic island was Seira musarum Ridley, 1890, which is the first species of Collembola recorded in Brazil. In the description of this species, Ridley [7] mentions: “Very abundant between the wet bases of the petioles of the bananas, at the base of the Peak (...) these small Collembola have been much neglected by collectors, and it is most probable that this species was introduced in the bananas.”
After Ridley, in the Brazilian oceanic islands, the only Collembola fauna survey was made by Lima and Zeppelini, 2015 [8] at Fernando de Noronha Archipelago, which presented 13 morphospecies and 9 species; later, Cipola et al. 2019 [9] had access to this material and registered Seira dowlingi in Fernando de Noronha, and Rafael et al. 2020 [10] presented a checklist with taxonomic advances from the 2015 survey.
The growing human impact on biodiversity requires great efforts in the development of conservation strategies. These efforts must be a priority in oceanic islands. These environments have great barriers to dispersion and colonization, especially for terrestrial fauna, which generally present very particular diversities [8]. In this way, the survey of Collembola fauna is important for conservation, due to its known bioindicator potential.
In this study, we present the taxonomic advances from Lima and Zeppelini, 2015 [8], Cipola et al. 2019 [9] and Rafael et al. 2020 [10] (in Fernando de Noronha) and the results of the first surveys for the Rocas Atoll and São Pedro e São Paulo Archipelago [8,9,10]. We present new records of Isotomidae, Entomobryidae and Paronellidae, as well as an update on the distribution and habitat synthesis of the Brazilian Entomobryomorpha, including contributions after Abrantes et al. 2012 [6].

2. Materials and Methods

2.1. Study Area

This survey was conducted in 3 Brazilian oceanic islands (2 Archipelagos and 1 Atoll) located in the Equatorial Atlantic Ocean, all belonging to the Brazilian national territory, as follows: Fernando de Noronha Archipelago—FN (3°50′ S, 32°15′ O), São Pedro e São Paulo Archipelago—SPSP (0°55′ N, 29°20′ O) and Rocas Atoll—RA (3°51′ S, 33°48′ O), about 360, 1010 and 267 km from the American continent, respectively (Figure 1). All maps were generated using Geographic Information System QGIS 3.16. Base maps from Google Satellite were used. Datum: SIRGAS 2000.

2.2. Taxonomic Nomenclature of Seira Musarum

The terminology used in the descriptions mainly follows: [11] to labial chaetotaxy, with additions of [12,13] to labial palp papillae; [14] to labral chaetotaxy; [15] to dorsal head chaetotaxy, with additions of [4,16] for abdomen V; to S-chaetotaxy with additions of [4,17] to dorsal chaetotaxy and [18] to the manubrial formula of ventral chaetae. For comparisons of the dorsal chaetotaxy, we also used the system of macrochaetae fields in [19], with adaptations provided by [18].

2.3. Sample Procedure

The Entomobryomorpha specimens were collected in three coastal environmental areas: the intertidal zone in sand or rock areas, without vegetation, referred to as sandy beach (SB); the sloping land closest to the intertidal zone, with vegetation, referred to as slope forest (SF) and the forest more distant from the beach, referred to as top forest (TF); the latter area only exists in Fernando de Noronha (Figure 2).
Collembola were captured with Berlese–Tullgren funnels (in SF and TF), and the washing technique and the extraction of floating specimens was carried out manually with aid of brushes (in SB) [8].
Specimens were preserved in ethanol, cleared in Nesbitt’s solution and then mounted on glass slides in Hoyer’s medium. Morphological analyses and measurements were obtained using a Zeiss Axio Scope A1 microscope with Axiocam 105 color and Zen 2 Blue software, and for analysis with a Scanning Electronic Microscope (SEM), specimens were dehydrated with ethanol, dried in a critical point dryer, and covered in gold. All species was deposited in the Coleção de Referência de Fauna de Solo (CRFS) at the Universidade Estadual da Paraíba, João Pessoa, PB, Brazil.

2.4. Species List of Brazilian Entomobryomorpha

Species records, collection location, habitat and biotope information for each species were modified from [6], which includes: newly described species, new records published between 2012 and 2022 and a survey of the Brazilian oceanic islands between 2012 and 2017. Publications that do not provide identifications of species with epithet have been omitted. Information on the world distribution of species was based on [20] and original new records. The biogeographical distribution regions according to [21], modified by [20,22], were as follows: Boreal (Bor) included regions 1–8, Paleotropical (Pal) regions 9–23, Neotropical (Neo) regions 24–30, South African (SAf) region 31, Australian (Aus) regions 32–34 and Antarctic (Ant) regions 35–37. Species restricted to Brazil were based on [20], defining the Brazilian biogeographic subregions: Amazon (Amz), North and Central Brazil (NCB) and Pampa (Pam), corresponding to biogeographic regions 26, 27 and 29, respectively [20]. Species distributed in at least four of the major regions (Neo, Pal, etc.) are considered widespread (WSP).

3. Results

3.1. Entomobryomorpha Survey of the Brazilian Oceanic Islands

Twenty Entomobryomorpha species are recorded in Brazilian oceanic islands distributed in the families: Isotomidae, Entomobryidae and Paronellidae. Except Archisotoma jariani Lima, Zeppelini & Mendonça 2019 and Psammisotoma sp., all species found in the islands studied have distribution in the American continent (Table 1).
In Fernando de Noronha, six Isotomidae, six Entomobryidae and five Paronellidae were found. Of this total (15 spp.), eight are widespread, four are exclusive species from Brazil, five are neotropical and one occurs in the Nearctic region (Table 1).
In São Pedro e São Paulo, three species were found, two Isotomidae and one Entomobryidae; these species have known distribution in the neotropical region and are widespread and restricted to Brazil, respectively (Table 1).
On Rocas Atoll, five species were found, three Isotomidae and one Paronellidae. Rocas Atoll was the only oceanic island that presented one endemic species (A. jariani), a possible new endemic species (Psammisotoma sp.), one distributed in Brazil and another in the neotropical region (Table 1).
The species Hemisotoma thermophila and Seira musarum occur in the three studied islands, and Cyphoderus innominatus occurs in Fernando de Noronha and Rocas Atoll. The only species of Entomobryomorpha that are shared between the islands are as follows:
Entomobryomorpha Börner, 1913;
Isotomoidea Szeptycki, 1979;
Isotomidae Schäffer, 1896.

Remarks. Psammisotoma sp. is similar to P. restingae Abrantes & Mendonça, 2009 (Brasil, RJ) in many ways, such as the habitus, sensory organ of antennal segment III, number of eyes, furcal chaetotaxy and mucro. Psammisotoma sp. present manubrium anteriorly with 30–36 chaetae and a lateral line with 6 + 6 to 8 + 8, and 1 + 1 to 2 + 2 distal spine-like chaetae, while P. restingae present manubrium anteriorly normally with 44 chaetae and a lateral line with 8 + 8, and 2 + 2 distal spine-like chaetae. Abrantes and Mendonça, 2009 [23] mention possible variations such as reduced chaetotaxy on the manubrium, dens with small numbers of setae and only one pair of spine-like chaetae on the internal margin, which could be attributed to different ontogenetic stages.
These variations and the impossibility of analyzing the P. restingue type did not allow the establishment of a new taxon.

Seira musarum Ridley, 1890
Syn.:Seira dowlingi (Wray, 1953)
Neotype designation. Seira musarum was first described by Ridley, 1890 based on specimens from the Fernando de Noronha Archipelago, Brazil. It is probable that Ridley’s original collection was deposited at the British Museum, London; nevertheless, efforts to trace it failed, and the type material probably no longer exists. Thus, following Article 75.3.4 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN) [24], here, we designate a female as a neotype on a slide; SF, Fernando de Noronha (3°50′44.85″ S; 32°25′44.80″ W), PE, Brazil. 17.VII.2008. D. Zeppelini leg., deposited at CRFS # 15119.

Remark. Seira musarum Ridley, 1890 was the first species of Collembola recorded and described in Brazil (type locality Fernando de Noronha). However, after its description, there was no other record of it until the specific survey to study the Collembola fauna on Brazilian oceanic islands was carried out by Lima and Zeppelini, 2015 [8] (more than one hundred years after the original description). In this survey, the authors recorded Seira musarum. Cipola et al. 2019 [9] had access to the same material and registered it as S. dowlingi (Wray, 1953); later, Rafael et al. 2020 [10] presented a study of the diversity of hexapods from Fernando de Noronha where existing and new records for the archipelago were compiled. Rafael et al. 2020 [10] recorded S. musarum and S. dowlingi (according to Lima and Zeppelini, 2015 [8] and Cipola et al. 2019 [9], respectively). The description of S. musarum is very old (Ridley 1890) and does not include characters used in the modern taxonomy of the genus. It is impossible to differentiate S. musarum from S. dowlingi (Wray, 1953) on the basis of the original description of the species. S dowlingi is known to be widespread and common on the islands [9,18]. Ernest Bernard analyzed Wray’s types in [18], and in a recent study by Soto-Adames, 2008 [4], they presented further elucidation of the morphology of Seira dowlingi which is not different from the topotypes of Seira musarum analyzed in this study. Therefore, here, we use S. dowlingi (Wray, 1953), cited by [4,18,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44] as a junior synonym of Seira musarum Ridley, 1890, as a new synonym according to “The Principle of Priority” (ICZN Article 23) that establishes “the valid name of a taxon is the oldest available name applied to it”.

3.2. Species List of Brazilian Entomobryomorpha

In Brazil, Entomobryomorpha fauna is registered in all states and three oceanic islands. The only oceanic Archipelago of Trindade and Martim Vaz have no record of Entomobryomorpha. Including the new records presented in this study, 247 Brazilian species of Entomobryomorpha are distributed in the families Entomobryidae (124 spp.); Paronellidae (41 spp.); Oncopoduridae, 1901 (2 spp.); Isotomidae (80 spp.) and 44 genera; see Table 3. This number presents an increase of 125 new species records since the last synthesis by Abrantes et al. 2012 [6].

4. Discussion

We presented 14 new records for the Brazilian oceanic islands, 7 of which were in Fernando de Noronha (Folsomides centralis, Denis 1931; Folsomides parvulus Stach, 1922; Folsomina onychiurina Denis, 1931; Isotomiella nummulifer Deharveng & Oliveira, 1990; Isotomodes cariocus Thibaud & Palacios-Vargas, 1999; Seira atrolutea Arlé, 1939; Trogolaphysa cotopaxiana Thibaud & Najt, 1988), 3 in São Pedro e São Paulo (Hemisotoma thermophila Axelson, 1900; Proisotoma immersa Folsom, 1924; Seira musarum Ridley, 1890) and 4 on Rocas Atoll (Hemisotoma thermophila Axelson, 1900; Psammisotoma sp.; Seira musarum Ridley, 1890; Cyphoderus innominatus Mills, 1938).
Among the islands studied, we can highlight Fernando de Noronha as the island that most changed in its biodiversity. According to Teixeira et al. 2003 [155], Serafini et al. 2010 [156] and Rafael et al. 2020 [10], the archipelago has faced serious ecological disturbances due to various human interventions. In 1737, the archipelago was turned into a penal colony for nearly 200 years. During this period, much of the native vegetation was devastated and exotic plants and animals were introduced to serve as food. The human population in the archipelago increased significantly in 1942 through military occupation in World War II. During the 1980s, tourism intensified in the archipelago and is an important economic activity today [155,156]. Our results show that Entomobryomorpha fauna of the Fernando de Noronha showed a high percentage of widespread species, which indicates the high rate of the introduction of species, likely by human activity.
The São Pedro archipelago and São Paulo presented the lowest richness in Entomobryomorpha species compared to the other islands, with its small size (0.17 Km2), low variety of habitats and location (mid-Atlantic) being the main factors responsible for the low biodiversity. Our results corroborate the data presented by Teixeira et al. 2003 [155], Serafini et al. 2010 [156] and Campos et al. 2005 [157].
Taking into account the distribution of the species in the Brazilian oceanic islands, we can highlight that Rocas Atoll presented the highest percentage of potentially endemic Entomobryomorpha species, which increases the relevance of the conservation strategies already adopted in this environment. The survey carried out by Lima et al. 2021 [158] on Poduromorpha species reinforces the idea that, among the islands studied, Rocas Atoll has the most preserved environment in relation to the other study areas.
Although the increase in the number of Brazilian Entomobriomopha species over the past decade has been relevant (about 103% since [6]), when we consider the variety of Brazilian continental biomes and the complex physiognomy of these areas, current knowledge of the Enomobryomorpha fauna can still be considered scarce and far from providing a reliable overview of its biogeographical panorama.
