    Un laboratorio para llevar: acercando las prácticas a casa para un aprendizaje activo en el área de zoología
    (2022) Novo Rodríguez, Marta; Sánchez Santos, Nuria; Gutiérrez López, Mónica; González Cánovas, Rosario V.; Pardos Martínez, Fernando; Trigo Aza, Dolores; Díaz Cosín, Darío J.
    El proyecto pretendía fomentar el aprendizaje activo de los alumnos mediante la creación de una caja “para llevar” que incluía material zoológico y los medios técnicos, para el estudio de la asignatura de Zoología de Invertebrados no Artrópodos. Además se planteó crear un banco de imágenes del material de los grupos zoológicos que se estudian en la asignatura para complementar el material de las cajas. El Laboratorio para llevar representa una herramienta de la máxima utilidad en todos los modelos de docencia plausibles. En el modelo online, permite a los alumnos el manejo de ejemplares y un aprendizaje activo y a su ritmo en su propia casa. En el modelo semipresencial con streaming permite que no haya una gran diferencia entre los alumnos presenciales y en línea, y en el modelo presencial completo permite que los alumnos repasen en sus casas, a su ritmo y con la intensidad que necesiten, el material más importante de la asignatura. El hecho de poder disponer del material en sus casas por un tiempo ilimitado permite complementar el estudio teórico de la asignatura, algo importante cuando se trata de un temario tan complejo como en este caso.

    Do cryptic species of earthworms affect soil arthropods differently? The case of the Carpetania elisae complex in the center of the Iberian Peninsula
    (European Journal of Soil Biology, 2019) Gutiérrez López, Mónica; García de Leaniz, María Isla; Trigo Aza, Dolores
    In recent years, it has been discovered that the endemic earthworm Carpetania elisae (formerly Hormogaster elisae) consists of a complex of at least six cryptic species. Studying the relationships between these new cryptic species and other soil animal communities may be important to understand their functional role in the soil, and eventually to detect possible differences that may help in the delimitation of these species. We have studied the effects of two of these cryptic species (species I from El Molar [Ce1] and species II from El Tomillar [Ce2]) on soil microarthropod communities. Several laboratory experiments were performed with both cryptic species, in the soils of both localities inhabited by these earthworm species, to determine their effects on soil microarthropod communities. Both earthworm species grew quite well throughout the experiment in their original soil, but while Ce1 grew up well when cultivated in the opposite soil from El Tomillar, Ce2 cultivated in the soil from El Molar survived but did not grow. Ce1 from El Molar showed a clear negative effect on microarthropods from El Molar and El Tomillar, whereas Ce2 from El Tomillar had a clear negative effect on soil microarthropods from its original soil but not on the ones from the opposite soil of El Molar. This paper demonstrates differences of both cryptic species on their effects on soil community, which suggest that they may play different roles in the soil system. Several mechanisms likely involved on the effect of earthworms on soil arthropods are discussed, being the competition for organic matter the most probable one in the case of these endogeic earthworms.
