Terrestrial isopods in urban environments: an overview [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2018 In an increasingly urbanized world scientific research has shifted towards the understanding of cities as unique ecosystems. Urban land use change results in rapid and drastic changes in physical and biological properties, including that of biodiversity ...

Effect of agricultural practices on terrestrial isopods: a review [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2018 Terrestrial isopods (approximately 3700 known species in the world) are encountered in temperate and tropical regions, from the seashore to high altitudes and from floodplain forests to deserts.

A Novel Light-Induced Collective Circular Movement in <i>Armadillo sordidus</i> Isopods. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe describe an interesting aggregative behavior in terrestrial isopods. We conclude that this behavior is in response to intense artificial lighting. ABSTRACT Collective movement in terrestrial isopods has rarely been documented and almost never discussed.

A bibliometric analysis of research on terrestrial isopods. [PDF]
Zookeys, 2022 Terrestrial isopods (Oniscidea) are crustaceans that thrive in terrestrial environments. This study provides an overview of the major topics in terrestrial isopod research during the last 70 years in order to provide an example of publication practices in invertebrate zoology and to examine how basic research in this area is transferred to its ...

Habitat-and-Site Dependent Variations on Crustaceans Associated With <i>Ecklonia radiata</i> Holdfast Along the South African Wild Coast. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe crustaceans associated with Ecklonia radiata holdfast varied substantially between rock pools and gullies in different sites. More species inhabited the gullies than the rock pools. This pattern was more prominent in the Dwesa site, while positive associations between abundance and richness were more pronounced in the rock pools.

Bug cemetery: a case study of terrestrial isopod distribution on a brick wall in the Czech Republic [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2022 Although terrestrial isopods (Oniscidea) are primarily soil- and surface-dwelling invertebrates, they can also be found on tree trunks and walls. This study evaluated distribution patterns of terrestrial isopods on a brick wall during the first hours of ...

Wolbachia in Neotropical terrestrial isopods [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2015 Despite Wolbachia being widespread among terrestrial isopods, studies on this symbiotic relationship are still incipient in the Neotropical region. The aims of the present study were to investigate the presence and prevalence of Wolbachia in natural populations of terrestrial isopod species in South America, and to analyze the diversity and ...
