Rewilding soil and litter invertebrates and fungi increases decomposition rates and alters detritivore communities. [PDF]
Ecol EvolRewilding entire communities of invertebrates and fungi during ecological restoration increased detritivore abundances. We found this had cascading effects that enhanced the efficiency of decomposition in revegetated farmland sites. Abstract Habitat degradation and associated reductions in ecosystem functions can be reversed by reintroducing or ...

Patterns of taxonomic diversity among terrestrial isopods
ZooKeys, 2015 The publication of the world catalog of terrestrial isopods some ten years ago by Schmalfuss has facilitated research on isopod diversity patterns at a global scale. Furthermore, even though we still lack a comprehensive and robust phylogeny of Oniscidea,

Winter activity of terrestrial isopods from thermal habitats in western Romania [PDF]
, 2013 Terrestrial isopods from warm shores neighboring the thermal waters from western Romania remain active in the winter. This phenomenon is registered in 35 habitats, affecting 12 species (Hyloniscus transsilvanicus, H.

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

The cavernicolous Oniscidea (Crustacea: Isopoda) of Portugal [PDF]
European Journal of Taxonomy, 2015 The study of subterranean Oniscidea in Portugal has been neglected for nearly 70 years, but recent investigations have revealed high diversity. All the terrestrial isopods from caves of mainland Portugal, including data from the literature and new material, are listed, revealing new biodiversity patterns.

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.Cave habitats strongly filter functional traits, constraining the diversity of terrestrial isopod communities along the epigean–hypogean gradient. Functional turnover decreases while richness differences increase in hypogean systems, reflecting uneven occupation of trait space rather than simple trait replacement.
