Millipedes (Diplopoda) of the Latorica Protected Landscape Area

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Until recently, the millipede fauna of the eastern lowland territories of Slovakia was few or incoherently studied. Nevertheless, the first published data in the end of the 19th century have already indicated the presence of interesting millipede fauna. Later, in the period 1948-1962, the millipedes were investigated here also by Gulička, as documented by material in his collection but never published. Actually, the intensive research in the Latorica Protected Landscape Area (PLA) and adjacent territories has yielded new and remarkable insights. During the present research at 83 localities, including both surface habitats and 2 long underground wine cellars, we obtained numerous millipede material, from which it was possible to summarize the relatively detailed distribution of individual species, their habitat preferences, and the composition of assemblages in typical habitats. In total, we present data about 27 species of millipedes, 24 of which were recorded during recent field studies, three other species are listed based on the literature data. The richest communities were observed in floodplain forests along the Latorica river and in the wetland of the Zemplínska jelšina Nature Reserve. The occurrence of East Carpathian faunistic elements that have descended to this promontory of the Pannonian Plain, Enantiulus transsilvanicus, Polydesmus burzenlandicus (first record for Slovakia) and apparently peculiar geographical and ecological form of Polydesmus complanatus represent the most interesting records. The recent research did not confirm historical data on the occurrence of Polydesmus subscabratus. Although this species is known primarily in the southern tip of the Carpathians, we cannot a priori rule out its occurrence in the studied region. The rare hygrophilic species Xestoiulus laeticollis deserves further attention, too. The unique millipede fauna of the given area can be derived from the geographical position of this territory located between the Carpathians and the Pannonian region as well as from the varied mosaic of landscape elements. Recorded data refer about the fauna of two orographic units, the Eastern Slovak Plain with 24 species and the Zemplínske vrchy Mts. with 16 species. Unique habitats of the Latorica PLA and their fauna deserve intensive attention and protection.
