The monophyly and the classification of the terrestrial isopods (Crustacea, Isopoda, Oniscidea)

open access: yesTravaux de l'Institut de Speologie Emile Racovitza, 2020
In accordance with our previous opinions (Tabacaru and Danielopol, 1996, 1999; Tabacaru and Giurginca, 2014, 2019), we argue again the monophyly of Oniscidea one of the well-defined suborders of the Order Isopoda.

Nest boxes as microhabitats supporting diverse arthropod communities

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Diverse Micro‐Habitats: Nest boxes supported 3634 arthropods from 82 families, highlighting their significant conservation value as artificial micro‐habitats for diverse invertebrate communities beyond their primary use for birds. Occupancy Boosts Diversity: Occupied nests exhibited significantly higher arthropod richness, abundance and Shannon ...

THE LONG TRAIL: A CHIMERA-LIKE FOSSIL CRUSTACEAN INTERPRETED AS DECAPODA, STOMATOPODA, AMPHIPODA AND FINALLY ISOPODA

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2021
The process of interpreting and evaluating a fossil is a difficult task. Isopoda is a species rich group of peracarid eumalacostracans which represent quite a challenge when found as fossils, independent of whether we are working with fragmentary or more

An investigation into the diet of elephant fish (Callorhinchus milii) in the waters of Aotearoa/New Zealand

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chondrichthyans (sharks, rays and chimaeras) are increasingly understood to be an important part of ocean ecosystems, but their ecological role is unclear. Callorhinchus milii (elephant fish) is a chimaera species endemic to Aotearoa/New Zealand and southern Australian waters.

I. On the development of the parasitic isopoda [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society of London, 1878
Abstract The paper contains an account of some points in the development of the Cymothoa œstroides and C. parallela of Milne-Edwards. The work was mainly carried on in the Zoological Station at Naples, and the author takes this opportunity of returning his best thanks to Dr. Dohrn and Dr. Eisig for the kind way in which they forwarded

New occurrence of Cirolana capricornica (Isopoda: Cirolanidae) from Epinephelus chlorostigma in Suez Governorate, Egypt [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary World
Background and Aim: The isopods of the Crustacea are noteworthy. All marine, fresh, and brackish waterways at all depths are home to aquatic organisms. This order also includes species that live on land. This study aimed to report a new occurrence of the

Long-read sequencing reveals atypical mitochondrial genome structure in a New Zealand marine isopod

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2022
Most animal mitochondrial genomes are small, circular and structurally conserved. However, recent work indicates that diverse taxa possess unusual mitochondrial genomes.

Filter feeders living on suspension feeders: New insights into the lifestyle and distribution of Arcturidae Dana, 1849 (Crustacea: Isopoda) around Iceland

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract The focus of the present study was on arcturid isopods occurring in the subarctic region around Iceland. Data from two decades of sampling with an epibenthic sledge (EBS) during numerous expeditions of the BIOICE (Benthic Invertebrates of Icelandic Waters; 1992–2004) and IceAGE (Icelandic marine Animals: Genetics and Ecology; 2011—ongoing ...

Molecular Evidence for the Placement of Microcerberidae (Crustacea: Isopoda) Within the Suborder Asellota and Invalidity of the Suborder Microcerberidea

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since their discovery, the question of the phylogenetic position of Microcerberidae within Isopoda has been widely debated. Initially perceived as close relatives of the Anthuridae, the debate has shifted towards considering them either as a sister group of Asellota or positioned within the Asellota in their own right.
