Allysson Allan Farias commented on an older version of "Introduction":
The Collembola fauna function lead us to formation of soil (nutrient cicling) and to feeding habit on litter, clay, fungi, bacteria, and other taxa, even the same taxa, sometimes cited as pantophagous because of this. A very abundant group of soil hexapods, both in terms of species and numbers. Densities range from about 100 to 670,000 individuals/m2 as many as 60 different species may coexist within a few hectares (Petersen and Luxton, 1982). Petersen, H., Luxton, M., 1982. A comparative analysis of soil fauna populations and their role in decomposition processes. Oikos 39, 288-388. Springtails have been found in everywhere on earth were there is soil and are active under most environmental conditions – unlike nematodes, bacteria or earthworms (Filser, 2002). Filser, J., 2002. The role of Collembola in carbon and nitrogen cycling in soil. Pedobiologia 46, 234-245.
