Advances in terrestrial isopod biology

, 2012
Terrestrial isopods (woodlice) are the only group of crustaceans fully adapted to life on land and with about 3,700 species known at present represent the largest suborder of Isopoda. They occur in almost any kind of terrestrial habitat, from littoral to

Observations of Trachyzelotes pedestris (C.L. Koch, 1837) hunting for terrestrial isopods in Belgium

We report two sightings of Trachyzelotes pedestris catching or attempting to catch a terrestrial isopod of the species Porcellio scaber. Observations of oniscophagy are rare in most spider species and to our knowledge these are the first sightings of a ...

Does Maze Orientation Influence Turn Alternation Behavior in Terrestrial Isopods?

Terrestrial isopods (Crustacea, Oniscidea) correct for deviations from a straight path by alternating the direction of subsequent turns, such as linear navigation when escaping from immediate threats.
