Full description

Macquarie Island’s invertebrate fauna is made up of over 350 species, with at least 40 species of established non-native invertebrates. This includes two predatory flatworm species Kontikia andersoni and Arthurdendyus vegrandis. Invertebrate monitoring was undertaken across Macquarie Island, with field surveys between 2015-2018. ://www.nespthreatenedspecies.edu.au/publications-and-tools/invasive-flatworms-on-macquarie-island-information-paper

Lineage

Progress Code: completed
Statement: We were unable to determine the exact location of previous absences reported by Greenslade. However, this does not influence our dataset on current distribution of species on the island. We established true absences in our surveys (2015-2018).

Notes

Purpose
The purpose of this dataset is to provide information on the current distribution of the two invasive flatworms, and to determine if the species had expanded in recent years. We found that Kontikia andersoni has significantly expanded its range since a previous survey in 2004. Arthurdendyus vegrandis was not detected during the surveys, despite additional focused searches in the area of its recorded occurrence in 2004.
