Cost of Breeding in Oniscid Isopods: A Partial Review

open access: yes, 2011
Oniscid isopods (Isopoda, Oniscidea) are able to provide extra developmental time to their young. This is done by having an internal oviposition: mature eggs are oviposited into the marsupium (brood pouch) where they undergo ermbryogenesis.

Eocene isopods on electric rays: tracking ancient biological interactions from a complex fossil record

open access: yes, 2019
Isopod crustaceans have developed a variety of feeding strategies, which impact on their various life habits over time. Apart from morphological adaptations and the typical secondary deformations that some parasitic isopods inflict on their host's ...

Behavioral Thermoregulation in Terrestrial Isopods

open access: yes
Organisms have optimal body temperatures and use diverse mechanisms in different environments to modulate internal thermal conditions, a process called thermoregulation.

Reproductive ecology of terrestrial isopods (Crustacea: Oniscidea)

open access: yes, 2009
Terrestrial isopods (Crustacea: Oniscidea) are important detritivores in many ecosystems. Because reproductive success and population dynamics of the Oniscidea depend on diverse biotic and abiotic environmental factors, the effects of global climate ...

LIST OF MARINE ISOPODS RECORDED FROM INDONESIAN WATERS [PDF]

open access: yes
A list of marine isopods recorded from Indonesia has been compiled from the literature published between 1857 and 2012 as well as from Museum Zoologicum Bogoriense’s collections and current expeditions. To date, 225 marine species from 97 genera and 19

Evidence of behavioural thermoregulation in novel assay for Ectothermic isopods:

open access: yes
This study investigates whether ectothermic isopods, such as Armadillidium vulgare and Porcellio laevis, behaviorally thermoregulate by adjusting their positional behavior based on prior acclimation to different temperatures.

Ecological studies of isopoda and diplopoda in dune grassland [PDF]

open access: yes, 1978
Distribution, population dynamics, biomass and population production of macrodecomposers have been studied in order to clarify the role of four species in the processes of energy transfer in a dune grassland ecosystem.

Data from: Considerations used by desert isopods to assess scorpion predation risk

open access: yes, 2018
Animals adjust behaviors to balance changes in predation risk against other vital needs. Animals must therefore collect sensory information and use complex risk assessment process that estimates risks and weigh costs and benefits entailed in different ...

THE TERRESTRIAL ISOPODS OF NEBRASKA (CRUSTACEA: ISOPODA) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Nine species in three families of terrestrial isopods were collected by the author in Nebraska between 1948 and 1998: Oniscidae (Oniscus asellus), Cylisticidae (Cylisticus convexus), and Porcellionidae (Armadillidium nasatum, A.
