Abstract
The distribution of predatory soil nematodes (Mononchida) across Europe is well
described. However, in Ireland knowledge of mononchids is limited to a single
study. The CréBeo project was the first systematic survey of soil biodiversity in the
major land-use types across the Republic of Ireland. Nematodes were sampled
from 61 locations with an extensive geographical spread including arable, pasture,
broadleaf forest, coniferous plantation, rough grazing and peatland sites. This
study resulted in 11 first records of mononchid species from Ireland (of which 2
are new records for Britain and Ireland). We discuss the mononchid species found
and aspects of their distribution across major land uses.
