与邻近的阿拉巴马州和田纳西州相比,佐治亚州的洞穴动物群吸引的关注较少,但佐治亚州包含许多独特的洞穴系统。石灰岩洞穴发现于该州的两个地质区,沿海平原和阿巴拉契亚高原和山谷。佐治亚州有500多个洞穴已知,但生物信息的报道不到15%。卡尔弗等人。(1999)回顾了洞穴在美国的分布。他们对佐治亚州独居洞穴居民的记录明显少于阿拉巴马州和田纳西州邻近县的记录。霍尔辛格和派克(1971)回顾了佐治亚州的洞穴动物群记录,并将他们自己的收集记录包括在带注释的清单中。自那次出版以来,新的记录和物种描述已经出版。正如Gosz(1999)所指出的,生物多样性调查中的采样工作时间越长,收集稀有或季节性物种的可能性就越大。本文的目的是通过报道最近收集的材料和回顾HolSinger和Peck(1971)之后发表的相关文献来更新佐治亚州洞穴动物和真菌的记录。材料和方法
The cave fauna of Georgia has attracted less attention than that of neighboring Alabama and Tennessee, yet Georgia contains many unique cave systems. Limestone caves are found in two geological regions of the state, the Coastal Plain, and the Appalachian Plateau and Valley. Over five hundred caves in Georgia are known, but biological information has been reported for less than 15%. Culver et al. (1999) reviewed the distributions of cavernicoles in the United States. Their records of obligate cave dwellers in Georgia were significantly less than records for adjacent counties of Alabama and Tennessee. Holsinger and Peck (1971) reviewed the cave faunal records of Georgia and included their own collection records in an annotated checklist. Since that publication, new records and species descriptions have been published. As indicated by Gosz (1999), the longer the sampling effort in a biodiversity survey, the more likely rare or seasonal species will be collected. The objective of our paper is to update the cave faunal and fungal records in Georgia by reporting recently collected material and reviewing relevant literature published after Holsinger and Peck (1971).
