The terrestrial isopod fauna of Cheharmahal-va-Bakhtiyari Province [PDF]
علوم محیطی, 2020 Introduction: Terrestrial isopods constitute the largest suborder in the order Isopoda and, as one of the main groups of soil decomposers, have an important role in acceleration of plant material recycling. Due to the shortage of studies on this taxon in

A Cost of Reproduction in a Terrestrial Isopod [PDF]
Evolution, 1983 Species that reproduce repeatedly over their lifetimes typically allocate energy to both their reproductive activities and their non-reproductive, somatic activities. Fisher (1930) first posed the evolutionary problem of understanding not merely the physiological mechanism of this energy allocation, but also the ultimate question of how the allocation ...

Surprisingly high genetic divergence of the mitochondrial DNA barcode fragment (COI) within Central European woodlice species (Crustacea, Isopoda, Oniscidea) [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2022 DNA barcoding has become the most popular approach for species identification in recent years. As part of the German Barcode of Life project, the first DNA barcode library for terrestrial and freshwater isopods from Germany is presented.

Phylogenomics supports a single origin of terrestriality in isopods [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological SciencesTerrestriality, the adaptation to life on land, is one of the key evolutionary transitions, occurring numerous times across the tree of life. Within Arthropoda, there have been several independent transitions: in hexapods, myriapods, arachnids and isopods. Isopoda is a morphologically diverse order within Crustacea, with species adapted to almost every

Predation by Terrestrial Isopods
The Florida Entomologist, 1974 Fifty of each sex of two species of terrestrial isopods, Armadillidium vulgare and Porcellio laevis, were each offered 16 live pupae, four each of Drosophilia hydei, D. immigrans, D. pseudoobscura and D. melanogaster, for 24 hr. Both sexes of both predator species fed on all prey species, each predator species taking numbers of prey species in the ...
