CONTRIBUTIONS TO DISTRIBUTION OF TURKISH FRESHWATER ISOPODS (CRUSTACEA: ISOPODA)

open access: yesTrakya University Journal of Natural Sciences, 2016
This study was carried out to contribute to distribution of freshwater isopods in Marmara Region (including Gökçeada and Bozcaada islands) of Turkey. For this aim, it was evaluated the material which was sampled during the years 1991, and 1998-2002 in a ...

Taxonomic study of the isopod crustaceans from the Spanish expedition Antártida 1986-11 in the Scotia Sea, South Atlantic

open access: yesScientia Marina, 1999
This paper summarizes the results of a taxonomic study of the isopods collected during the Antártida 1986-11 expedition. A total of 123 specimens were studied, of which 99 were in the adult or juvenile phases and 24 were in the postmanca phase.

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

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 770-776, September 2026.
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.

Trachelipus razzauti (Arcangeli, 1913) (Crustacea: Isopoda: Oniscidea) and Typhloiulus serborum Ćurčić & Makarov, 2005 (Myriapoda: Diplopoda) – new species for the Romanian fauna

open access: yesTravaux de l'Institut de Speologie Emile Racovitza
A new species of Oniscidea, Trachelipus razzauti, and a new species of Diplopoda, Typhloiulus serborum, are recorded first time for the Romanian fauna. Both species have been “discovered” in the collection of the “Emil Racoviţă” Institute of Speleology.

Comparative Neuroanatomy of Hydrothermal Vent Shrimps: Ecological Differentiation Among Four Alvinocaridid Species

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 8, August 2026.
Hydrothermal vent shrimps share a conserved brain architecture with enlarged mushroom bodies and terminal medullae, shaped by similar environmental pressures. Despite this similarity, some anatomical features near the brain vary between species, suggesting that some ecological factors, such as microhabitat and trophic strategies, also influence nervous

First record of the genus Metacirolana sp. and Cymodoce tribullis (Crustacea; Isopoda) from South Andaman, Andaman Islands, India

open access: yesJournal of Tropical Life Science, 2020
Isopoda are one of the most poorly known crustaceans in Andaman and Nicobar Islands. The present study has recorded genus Metacirolana sp. and Cymodoce tribullis, for the first time from South Andaman.

Convergent digestive adaptation to resource limitation in an insular lizard across a microgeographic archipelago

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 8, Page 1372-1385, August 2026.
Replicated mainland–islet populations of the Skyros wall lizard reveal consistent divergence in digestive physiology, including gut morphology, passage time, digestive efficiency and enzyme activity. These results show how ecological variation in resource availability can shape digestive performance across populations in insular environments.

Beyond species diversity: Functional responses of cave arthropods to microclimatic stability and structural complexity

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 4, Page 715-728, August 2026.
Species richness declined along cave microclimatic gradient, while diversity increased with habitat heterogeneity, highlighting distinct roles of abiotic conditions and structural complexity in shaping arthropod communities. Functional traits shifted along the microclimatic gradient, with larger‐bodied and more eye‐regressed arthropods dominating under

Nest boxes as microhabitats supporting diverse arthropod communities

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 4, Page 832-837, August 2026.
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 ...
