“…The birds that play a major role in plant transport are the kelp gull (L. dominicanus) and skua species (Stercorarius antarcticus (Lesson, 1831), S. maccormicki (Saunders, 1893), according to Parnikoza et al (2009Parnikoza et al ( , 2012. The origin of transferred material is a very important question to explain the source of TARDIGRADA in nests.…”

“…during the Holocene) by random long-distance dispersal events (Muñoz et al, 2004;Parnikoza et al, 2012), but the idea of glacial shelters remains somehow latent. Certainly, the observed genetic diversity distribution (higher at the southern sites) could have been generated recently (i.e.…”

“…In the process of vegetation succession in the Arctic region, many vascular plants participate in each stage. However, in the Antarctic region, there are only two vascular plants: Deschampsia antarctica and Colobanthus quitensis (Parnikoza et al 2012). Therefore, lichens and mosses are expected to play main roles in vegetation succession as dominant species in the Antarctic region.…”

“…Therefore, lichens and mosses are expected to play main roles in vegetation succession as dominant species in the Antarctic region. In addition, the development of coastal ecosystem in the Antarctic region is largely affected by maritime ecosystem mediated by animals, and with very slow speed in soil forming, ground consisting of rocks or stones is very widely distributed (Parnikoza et al 2012). Accordingly, there may be a possibility of that vegetation succession, and its driving force in the Antarctic region is different from that in the Arctic region.…”
