Abstract
Excavation alongside the site of pollen research by Jóhannes Jóhansen at Tjørnuvfk on Streymoy provided a parallel series of samples for fossil insect analysis. These showed a significant increase in species diversity s lortly after the palynological evidence for landnám. The fauna includes several species which must have been introduced with the first settlers.
