Springtails (class Collembola) form the largest of the three lineages of modern hexapods that are no longer considered insects. Although the three lineages are sometimes grouped together in a class called Entognatha because they have internal mouthparts , they do not appear to be any more closely related to one another than they are to all ...
The Entomobryoidea are a superfamily of springtails (Collembola), tiny hexapods related to insects. In the modern sense, this group is placed in an order called Entomobryomorpha. This superfamily contains very characteristic species of springtails. They typically possess long legs and antennae, as well as a well-developed furcula.
Entomobryidae, sometimes called "slender springtails", is a family of springtails characterised by having an enlarged fourth abdominal segment and a well-developed furcula. Species in this family may be heavily scaled and can be very colourful.
The changes can affect some species' ability to reproduce, but since there are many variations in the species of soil mesofauna, the changes won’t affect all. For mesofauna such as springtails temperature and soil moisture influence the reproduction and growth rates of the individuals.
Folsomia candida is a species of springtail in the family Isotomidae. It is found in soil in many locations around the world, having been spread inadvertently by humans. It reproduces by parthenogenesis and has been used as a model organism in research.
The Entomobryomorpha are one of the three main groups of springtails (Collembola), tiny hexapods related to insects. This group was formerly treated as a superfamily, the Entomobryoidea. They can be best distinguished from the other springtail groups by their body shape. The Symphypleona are very round animals, almost spherical.
