Determination of the Form of Regenerating Limbs in Asellus aquaticus [PDF]
Journal of Cell Science, 1950 ABSTRACT The nerve-supply to the regenerating anterior pleopods of Asellus aquaticus influences the rate of regeneration but not the character of the regenerate. The tissues of the locality of the blastema determine the character of the regenerate and also influence the rate and extent of regeneration.

Phenotypic plasticity in response to the social environment: effects of density and sex ratio on mating behaviour following ecotype divergence. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 The ability to express phenotypically plastic responses to environmental cues might be adaptive in changing environments. We studied phenotypic plasticity in mating behaviour as a response to population density and adult sex ratio in a freshwater isopod (

Locally differentiated cryptic pigmentation in the freshwater isopod Asellus aquaticus
, 2005 A repeated pattern of background colour matching in animals is an indication that pigmentation may be cryptic. Here, we examine the relationship between pigmentation of the freshwater isopod Asellus aquaticus and background darkness in 29 lakes, wetlands
