Couverture géographique
Three islands from the Cyclades within the Aegean archipelago were surveyed: Antiparos, Tsimintiri and Despotiko. 200m squared areas were chosen to determine the area for the random placement of the pitfall traps and quadrats. These include two areas in Despotiko - the archaeological site and just outside the site (north-eastern part of the island); the central area of Tsimintiri; and two areas in the south-western part of Antiparos.

Couverture taxonomique
A total of 1147 specimens (excluding Formicidae which were sampled by presence/absence) belonging to 14 invertebrate orders were collected from pitfall traps across Antiparos, Tsimintiri and Despotiko. Of these, specimens from the order Stylommatophora (60) and the Tenebrionidae (708) and Cerambycidae (14) families from the order Coleoptera were identified to species level. Formicidae and Mutillidae specimens were also curated and identified to species level and curated.

Données sur le projet
Invertebrates are important for ecosystem function and despite their importance, there are still knowledge gaps in some species distributions. This project aimed to provide a comprehensive assessment of the invertebrate fauna across Antiparos, Despotiko and Tsimintiri, as part of a broader comparative assessment investigate island biogeography patterns across these islands. The islets of Despotiko and Tsimintiri in the Cyclades, Greece are uninhabited and are of archaeological importance. However, they have not received much attention with regards to biodiversity. A total of 1147 specimens (excluding Formicidae which were sampled by presence/absence) belonging to 14 invertebrate orders were collected from pitfall traps across Antiparos, Tsimintiri and Despotiko. Greater taxonomic depth was reached for various beetle families, ants and snails. Overall, this project provides a foundation of data for future studies on these islands.

| Description du domaine détude / de recherche | Three islands in the Cyclades in the central Aegean Sea were surveyed: Antiparos, Tsimintiri and Despotiko. The climate is typical Mediterranean climate. It is hot and dry in the summer, and these islands are also exposed to Meltemi/Etesian winds which are strong, dry, northerly winds that are present between May and September. Overall, the environment is xeric and grazed. Surveying of ground invertebrates took place from May-June 2024. |
| Description du design | As the aim of the project was to conduct a comparative assessment of ground invertebrate communities across the study islands, baited pitfall trapping and timed-searches for invertebrates not likely to enter pitfall traps (e.g. snails) were conducted. Inter-island distances are short and the islands were recently connected as one land mass so it is predicted that they would have similar community composition. However, the area of each island is markedly different and therefore species-area patterns may be at play. This project also carried out statistical analysis comparing island richness and area to see if it follows the general pattern of a larger area encompassing greater species richness. |

Méthodes déchantillonnage
Invertebrate sampling was conducted within five 200 x 200m areas across the three islands chosen based on accessibility: two areas in Despotiko, two in Antiparos and one in Tsimintiri were. 10 pitfall traps were randomly positioned within each area at least 50m apart were active for three nights. Randomisation was conducted using QGIS random point generator. Pitfall traps were dug as close to the coordinates specified. These traps consisted of transparent plastic cups (12 oz) which were baited with Sangria wine. Cups were dug ensuring the rim was flush with the ground. The position of the cups was also paired with the positioning of 2 x 2m quadrats for 1 minute timed hand-searches of snail shells.

|---|---|
| Contrôle qualité | Pitfall traps were randomly placed to avoid bias and positioned at least 50m apart to ensure each sample was independent. The traps were also standardised in size, duration active and amount of bait. The same recorder was used to carry out timed searches for snails to avoid variation in recorder detection. Identification of specimens to species level were identified through careful examination under a stereomicroscope with use of dichotomous keys and trained taxonomists in their field. |
Description des étapes de la méthode:
- Determination of 200 x 200m areas were determined based on accessibility to survey the area. Points were then generated 50m apart to determine the location of the pitfall traps. Each trap was made with 12 oz cups with lids inverted and a 3m diameter hole cut to act as the filter. Water and detergent were mixed as the killing agent. 120 ml of Sangria wine was used as bait halfway up the cup, attached with a cocktail stick. Surrounding rocks were used as a cover, leaving 2cm gap from the ground. 2 x 2m quadrats were then positioned with the pitfall trap as close to the centre of the quadrat as possible. 1 minute timed hand-searches for snail shells were then conducted within the quadrat area. Three nights after traps were laid out, the samples were collected and immediately preserved in 95% ethanol and identified at a later date.
