Background Soils have been studied and classified in terms of their physical and chemical characteristics, while the knowledge about biodiversity and the ecosystem processes that they support is lagging behind. Furthermore, the advance in scientific knowledge contributed by different researchers is dispersed and it is necessary to collect it to bring the big picture into focus. Today, it is possible to have the findings and data collected by different researchers, compile them and, based on technological advances, have tools that allow the information to be analysed in its entirety. The main objective of this work is to compile and systematise all the bibliographic information available on the main organisms that make up biodiversity in the soil: Acari, Collembola and Crassiclitellata in Argentina. This information will then allow us to link the composition and structure of the soil community with processes and flows in the ecosystem, and to estimate them at different scales and in soils with different anthropic impact. The database presented here gathers presence information on the mentioned taxa, their geographical location for the entire country, while preserving the identity and authorship of each scientific work retrieved. The taxonomic range of the organisms of the edaphic biota collected in this database ranges from class to subspecies and are registered, based on the taxonomic level reported by the original author in their research. The publications were obtained from Google Scholar, Scopus and JSTOR. In addition, records were added from INEDES theses, library searches, information requested from authors cited in other articles and unpublished works. In total, information was collected from 224 scientific publications, as well as personal information requested directly from some authors. The total number of registered individuals so far is 4838 of which 3049 specimens correspond to Acari, 944 to Classiclitellata and 845 belong to Collembola. New information This work is the first to gather, in a single publication, the entire dataset for all the Acari, Collembola and Clitellata recorded for Argentina.

目前可用于阿根廷的土壤生物群地理参考数据库

背景 土壤已根据其物理和化学特性进行了研究和分类，但有关其支持的生物多样性和生态系统过程的知识却相对滞后。此外，不同研究人员贡献的科学知识进步是分散的，有必要将其收集起来以聚焦全局。如今，可以将不同研究人员收集的发现和数据进行汇编，并根据技术进步，拥有可以对信息进行整体分析的工具。这项工作的主要目标是对构成土壤生物多样性的主要生物体（阿根廷的螨虫、跳虫和 Crassiclitellata）的所有可用文献信息进行汇编和系统化。这些信息将使我们能够将土壤群落的组成和结构与生态系统中的过程和流动联系起来，并在不同尺度和具有不同人为影响的土壤中对其进行估计。这里提供的数据库收集了上述分类单元的存在信息、它们在整个国家的地理位置，同时保留了检索到的每件科学著作的身份和作者身份。该数据库中收集的土壤生物群的生物分类范围从纲到亚种，并根据原作者在其研究中报告的分类水平进行登记。这些出版物来自 Google Scholar、Scopus 和 JSTOR。此外，还添加了来自 INEDES 论文、图书馆检索、其他文章和未发表作品中引用的作者请求的信息的记录。总共从 224 份科学出版物中收集了信息，以及一些作者直接要求的个人信息。迄今为止登记的个体总数为4838个，其中3049个属于Acari标本，944个属于Classlitellata，845个属于Colembola。新信息 这项工作首次在单一出版物中收集了阿根廷记录的所有螨虫、弹尾虫和蚊虫的完整数据集。
