Dados Sobre o Projeto

In the last decade many species were recorded as new introductions for Azores. Most of those species are exotic species with invasion potential. In this contribution we report the new arrival of several terrestrial arthropod species in the Azores islands and highlight the need to monitor their spread, particularly for some species that may be considered problematic.

Título New findings of terrestrial arthropods from the Azorean islands
Identificador AZORES-ARTHROPODS-RECORDS
Financiamento The database management and Open Access was funded by the project FCT-UIDB/00329/2020-2024 - DOI:10.54499/UIDB/00329/2020 (Thematic Line 1 – integrated ecological assessment of environmental change on biodiversity). MB was supported by Fundacão para a Ciência e a Tecnologia through contract DL57/2016/CP1375/CT0004 at the University of the Azores (https://doi.org/10.54499/DL57/2016/CP1375/CT0004). MB and PAVB were also funded by the project Azores DRCT Pluriannual Funding (M1.1.A/FUNC.UI&D/010/2021-2024) and PAVB by the project AZORESBIOPORTAL – PORBIOTA (ACORES-01-0145-FEDER-000072).
Descrição da Área de Estudo This project was carried out in the Azores archipelago. The Azores are a group of nine volcanic islands located in the North Atlantic Ocean, roughly 1,500 km (930 miles) west of mainland Portugal. The archipelago is divided into three groups: the Eastern Group (São Miguel and Santa Maria), the Central Group (Terceira, Graciosa, São Jorge, Pico, and Faial), and the Western Group (Flores and Corvo). The islands are characterized by rugged terrain, with steep cliffs, lush greenery, and numerous volcanic craters, some of which have formed lakes. The highest point in the Azores is Pico, a stratovolcano on Pico Island, standing at 2,351 meters above sea level. The climate is temperate and oceanic, with mild temperatures year-round and high humidity, influenced by the surrounding Atlantic Ocean. The islands are known for their diverse landscapes, including native forests. The geography is largely shaped by human activity, with the landscape dominated by human-transformed habitats, primarily seminatural and intensive pastures used for agriculture, as well as forest plantations. These plantations consist mainly of non-native species such as Pittosporum undulatum, Eucalyptus species, Cryptomeria japonica, Acacia melanoxylon, and Pinus pinaster. Only about 5% of the archipelago's total area remains covered by native forests, which are now restricted to small patches on steep slopes and less accessible areas.
Descrição do Design The discovery of new species records stems from both ongoing inventory and monitoring efforts aimed at enhancing our understanding of Azorean terrestrial arthropod biodiversity, as well as from incidental sampling. The application of standardized sampling techniques has been crucial in this process, including methods to monitor ground-dwelling and canopy arthropods (the BALA protocol, developed under the Biodiversity of Arthropods of Laurisilva of Azores project), airborne arthropods (the SLAM protocol, from the Sea, Land, Aerial Malaise project), and insect pollinators (the SPRING protocol, established by the Strengthening Pollinator Recovery through INdicators and monitorinG project). These standardized approaches have led to the identification of new species at both the island and archipelago level.

Métodos de Amostragem

The new species records result both from ongoing inventory/monitoring efforts to improve the knowledge on the Azorean terrestrial arthropod biodiversity, but also from occasional sampling. The use of standardized sampling techniques to monitor epigean and canopy arthropods [BALA protocol, following Biodiversity of Arthropods of Laurisilva of Azores (BALA) project], airborne arthropods [Sea Land Aerial Malaise protocol, following Sea, Land, Aerial Malaise (SLAM) project], and insect pollinators [SPRING protocol, following Strengthening Pollinator Recovery through INdicators and monitorinG (SPRING) project] led to the collection of new species findings at island or archipelago leve

Área de Estudo The studies were carried out in the Azores archipelago, which is located in the North Atlantic. The archipelago has nine islands distributed among three island groups. Data is available for Flores (Ocidental Group), Faial, Pico, São Jorge and Terceira (Central Group) and São Miguel and Santa Maria (Oriental Group)
Controle de Qualidade The specimens were identified to species level in the laboratory using a Leica S9i stereomicroscope and diverse taxonomic literature. All collected specimens were stored in vials with ethanol (70%) and deposited in the Dalberto Pombo entomological collection (DTP) at the University of the Azores (Angra do Heroísmo, Portugal).
