  33. Invertebrates from at least three major groups (crustaceans, gastropods and insects)
  34. have distributions that are restricted to within a few hundred metres of the coast, but
  35. unlike coastal plants there has been little discussion and no tests of the mechanisms
  36. that might control such distributions.
  37. 2.
  38. Coastally restricted landhoppers,
  39. Austrotroides maritimus
  40. Friend, were transported
  41. inland of their natural distribution and established in enclosures at a site in far southern
  42. Tasmania. Salt (dry and in solution) was added to these enclosures to test the hypothesis
  43. that this species is confined to the coast by a requirement for salt.
  44. 3.
  45. Over 5 months,
  46. A. maritimus
  47. persisted and reproduced in the dry salt treatment, but
  48. numbers remained low or declined in the other treatments.
  49. 4.
  50. The addition of salt in solution did not produce the increase in numbers seen in the
  51. dry salt treatment. There was no evidence that non-coastal species declined under the
  52. salt treatments.
  53. 5.
  54. The restriction of
  55. A. maritimus
  56. to the coast is explained in terms of its dependence
  57. on a supply of ions from salt spray, rather than a resistance to conditions which other
  58. more competitive species cannot tolerate.
  59. 6.
  60. This conclusion is qualified by the possibility that there may be occasional saltconcentrating
  61. events in the coastal zone which raise the salt concentration above the
  62. tolerance levels of non-coastal species.
  63. 7.
  64. Coastal landhoppers, in Tasmania at least, are not plesiomorphic members of their
  65. genera, so their distributions appear to be secondary, rather than representing an early
  66. stage in land colonization." name="eprints.abstract" />

  322. Invertebrates from at least three major groups (crustaceans, gastropods and insects)&#13;
  323. have distributions that are restricted to within a few hundred metres of the coast, but&#13;
  324. unlike coastal plants there has been little discussion and no tests of the mechanisms&#13;
  325. that might control such distributions.&#13;
  326. 2.&#13;
  327. Coastally restricted landhoppers,&#13;
  328. Austrotroides maritimus&#13;
  329. Friend, were transported&#13;
  330. inland of their natural distribution and established in enclosures at a site in far southern&#13;
  331. Tasmania. Salt (dry and in solution) was added to these enclosures to test the hypothesis&#13;
  332. that this species is confined to the coast by a requirement for salt.&#13;
  333. 3.&#13;
  334. Over 5 months,&#13;
  335. A. maritimus&#13;
  336. persisted and reproduced in the dry salt treatment, but&#13;
  337. numbers remained low or declined in the other treatments.&#13;
  338. 4.&#13;
  339. The addition of salt in solution did not produce the increase in numbers seen in the&#13;
  340. dry salt treatment. There was no evidence that non-coastal species declined under the&#13;
  341. salt treatments.&#13;
  342. 5.&#13;
  343. The restriction of&#13;
  344. A. maritimus&#13;
  345. to the coast is explained in terms of its dependence&#13;
  346. on a supply of ions from salt spray, rather than a resistance to conditions which other&#13;
  347. more competitive species cannot tolerate.&#13;
  348. 6.&#13;
  349. This conclusion is qualified by the possibility that there may be occasional saltconcentrating&#13;
  350. events in the coastal zone which raise the salt concentration above the&#13;
  351. tolerance levels of non-coastal species.&#13;
  352. 7.&#13;
  353. Coastal landhoppers, in Tasmania at least, are not plesiomorphic members of their&#13;
  354. genera, so their distributions appear to be secondary, rather than representing an early&#13;
  355. stage in land colonization.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block" border="0"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Additional Information:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">The definitive version is available at www.blackwell-synergy.com</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Keywords:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Coastal zone, distributional limits</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Subjects:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/270703.html">270000 Biological Sciences &gt; 270700 Ecology and Evolution &gt; 270703 Terrestrial Ecology</a><br /><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/270709.html">270000 Biological Sciences &gt; 270700 Ecology and Evolution &gt; 270709 Biogeography</a></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ID Code:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">1483</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited By:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><span class="ep_name_citation"><span class="person_name">A/Prof Alastair Richardson</span></span></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited On:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">27 Jul 2007</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Last Modified:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">09 Jan 2008 02:30</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ePrint Statistics:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a target="ePrintStats" href="/es/index.php?action=show_detail_eprint;id=1483;">View statistics for this ePrint</a></td></tr></table><p align="right">Repository Staff Only: <a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/cgi/users/home?screen=EPrint::View&amp;eprintid=1483">item control page</a></p>
