Invertebrate species list of coastal lagoons in the Balearic Islands


Coastal lagoons are particular ecosystems, since they are ecotones between terrestrial, freshwater and marine ecosystems, being characterized by a high temporal variability. Because of these characteristics, coastal lagoons have very peculiar abiotic and biotic conditions that require investigation if we are to understand their complex ecological functions. In this study, a list of invertebrate species from coastal lagoons in the Balearic archipelago is provided in order to enhance the knowledge of their aquatic fauna. This study reports on the existence of 123 species, from 135 genera and 24 families.
The most common taxa were Chironomus spp. (Meigen, 1803) and Halocladius spp. (Hirvenoja,1973) (Diptera, Chironomidae), Hydrobia ventrosa (Montgau, 1803) (Gastropoda, Hydrobiidae), Cyprideis torosa (Jones, 1850) (Ostracoda, Cytherideidae), Lekanesphaera hookeri (Leach, 1814) (Isopoda, Sphaeromatidae) and Naididae (Oligochaeta).

An analysis of habitat distribution and associations in theOdonata of theBalearic Islands, Spain

 Spatial structure of the odon. community is analysed. The different abundance of the spp. and their most characteristic habitats in the islands are indicated. The reproduction of 19 spp. on the Balearic Islands is confirmed. Coenagrion scitulum is recorded for the first time from the archipelago. The associations of spp. existing on each of the islands were established by meansof factoranalysis (correspondence analysis); a total of9 associations are defined. This study has been made on larvae exclusively. Sympetrum striolatum is the most abundant sp. in the Balearic Islands. Previous records are discussed.

Detección de la grafiosis agresiva en la isla de Ibiza (Baleares

Se ha detectado por primera vez en la isla de Ibiza (Baleares) la especie fúngica agresiva a los olmos Ophiostoma novo-ulmi (Ascomicetes). Hasta el momento sólo se había aislado la especie no agresiva O. ulmi y se presumía que las Baleares podrían constituir una reserva genética para los olmos europeos. Se detallan las técnicas utilizadas para el aislamiento e identificación de las especies agresiva y no agresiva, así como la descripción de sus caracteres macro y microscópicos. Palabras clave: Ophistome novo-ulmi, O.ulmi, grafiosis, Ulmus, Baleares, España  GARCÍA ROTGER, M.. y J. ROMERO CASADO, J. (1996) Bol. San. Veg. Plagas , 22
