Does Porcellio scaber (Isopoda: Oniscidea) gain from coprophagy?
Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2002Abstract In feeding experiments, leaf litter of different tree species and isopod feces derived from these leaf litter materials were offered to the common woodlouse, Porcellio scaber . Consumption indices were used to elucidate the nutritional significance of coprophagy. Consumption rates of P.
