Cavernicolous Oniscidea of Romania
Travaux de l'Institut de Speologie Emile Racovitza, 2013 35 species of cavernicolous Oniscidea inhabit the caves of Romania. A remarkable aspect of the oniscidean fauna is the high number of endemic species.

An overview of Estonian woodlice (Isopoda, Oniscidea). [PDF]
Zookeys, 2021 An overview of the Estonian terrestrial isopod fauna is given, based on literature data and material collected from 1984 to 2021. The identified material consisted of 10915 specimens belonging to 14 species and collected from 172 localities throughout Estonia. In combination with previous data from the literature data, there are now reliable records of

Population Genetics of an Endemic Species <i>Mongoloniscus sinensis</i> (Isopoda: Oniscidea) and Diversification Dynamics Across Northern China. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe explored the population genetics and demographic history of an isopod species endemic in temperate China on the basis of three mitochondrial genes. Three clusters were identified. The Midland group has the highest genetic diversity, and the greatest differentiation between the East and West groups was due to the geographical barrier caused by the ...

Highlights in Science, Engineering and Technology, 2023 We infer the relationship of Oniscidea by utilizing two genetic markers, COI and 16S, and build a topology using the Maximum Likelihood method. We found that troglobitic behavior to have arisen multiple times independently, and the genera Spherillo and Burmoniscus to be in need of revision.

THE FAMILY OLIBRINIDAE IN ITALY (MALACOSTRACA ISOPODA ONISCIDEA)
Redia, 2022 Taiti S., Gardini P. – The family Olibrinidae in Italy (Malacostraca Isopoda Oniscidea). Among the Oniscidea, the family Olibrinidae is still poorly known and was not yet recorded from Italy. The genus Castellanethes Brian, 1952, previously included in the family Trichoniscidae, is transferred to the family Olibrinidae, representing the first record of

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 25, Issue 12, Page 2776-2791, December 2023., 2023 Abstract Microplastic (MP) is an environmental burden and enters food webs via ingestion by macrofauna, including isopods (Porcellio scaber) in terrestrial ecosystems. Isopods represent ubiquitously abundant, ecologically important detritivores. However, MP‐polymer specific effects on the host and its gut microbiota are unknown.

Fossil Studies, 2023 A fossil of Oniscidea, Tylidae gen. et sp. indet. from Kachin amber (Cretaceous Cenomanian), Myanmar, is described here. The convex body, the cephalon with a triangular protrusion between the antennae, and pereonites 2–6 with epimera demarcated from tergites indicate that this specimen belongs to the family Tylidae, but since it is not an adult the ...

Ecological Applications, Volume 33, Issue 4, June 2023., 2023 Abstract Urban‐induced habitat conversion drastically changes soil life in a variety of ways. Soil sealing, human disturbance, habitat fragmentation, industrial and vehicular pollution are the main causes of urban soil degradation. Soil arthropods, as one of the most abundant and diverse group of soil fauna, are involved in many soil processes that are
