Abstract

Abstract A survey was undertaken of the nematode fauna associated with moss and algal growth from terrestrial sites on Ross Island and the Dry Valleys of the McMurdo Sound region, Antarctica. Six species, in decreasing order of abundance, were identified: Plectus frigophilus, Eudorylaimus antarcticus, Scottnema lindsayae, Plectus antarcticus, Panagrolaimus davidi, and Monhystera villosa. Maps are given showing the distribution of these species. Cultures of Panagrolaimus davidi, Plectus antarcticus, and Plectus frigophilus were establishedonnutrient agar plates, feeding on bacteria.
