Subalpine shrubland and alpine aeolian ecosystems occur on the upper portions of Haleakala volcano on the island of Maui. These high elevation ecosystems represent important habitats for native species. In particular, they serve as home to a number of unique and highly adapted arthropod species that occur nowhere else. We conducted an inventory of arthropods in this area using three systematic sampling techniques in two elevational zones, supplemented by limited opportunistic hand collecting. This report catalogues all arthropod species collected in the course of the inventory, and when possible, provides additional information relevant to the species listed.
