Abstract

The is one of the first faunistic studies to be completed in New Mexico and one of the first comprehensive analyses of the ecological distribution of the species of Collembola in as large and varied an area as New Mexico. One hundred fifty-two Collembola species, of which 24 are described as new, are recorded from New Mexico. In addition four species, of which one is described as new, are recorded for the first time from Colorado. Prior to the present study, only four species of Collembola were recorded from New Mexico.
