The impacts of biological invasions
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Reproductive ecology of terrestrial isopods (Crustacea: Oniscidea)
, 2009 Terrestrial isopods (Crustacea: Oniscidea) are important detritivores in many ecosystems. Because reproductive success and population dynamics of the Oniscidea depend on diverse biotic and abiotic environmental factors, the effects of global climate ...

Forest affinity of Belgian terrestrial isopods (Isopoda: Oniscidea)
, 2020 Categorizing species with respect to their affinity to forest ecosystems can help to assess forest habitat quality and support scientifically based decision-making for management.

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1582-1605, June 2026.ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

“Protracheoniscus vasileradui” – n. sp. (Crustacea, Isopoda, Crinochaeta) in the Romanian fauna
Studia Universitatis Babeș-Bolyai. Biologia, 2018 We describe the terrestrial isopod species Protracheoniscus vasileradui n. sp. collected from the deciduous forest in the Liuborajdea Valley, Iron Gates (Porţile de Fier) area. We named it Protracheoniscus vasileradui n.sp., in the memory of Prof. V. Gh.

Flooding affects fluctuating asymmetry but not growth of a riparian orbweaving spider
Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 547-557, June 2026.In a mesocosm experiment we assessed the impact of flood on aquatic insect emergence and on spider development using geometric morphometric analysis of fluctuating asymmetry. We observed 45% higher emergence in flooded mesocosm throughout the season. Spiders did not grow bigger but exhibited ~15% lower fluctuating asymmetry than in controls.

Detection of Wolbachia (ALPHA PROTEOBACTERIA: RICKETTSIALES) in three species of terrestrial isopods (CRUSTACEA: ISOPODA: ONISCIDEA) in Brazil [PDF]
, 2012 Terrestrial isopods are widely infected with Wolbachia. However, little is known about the presence of bacteria in the Neotropical species. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis of presence of Wolbachia infection in the native species of

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 12, June 2026.ABSTRACT Southern right whale (Eubalaena australis; SRW) populations are recovering from the impacts of commercial whaling, however, recovery has been spatially variable, with strong associations between reproduction and prey availability. The diet of SRWs has not been widely examined, and with SRW foraging shifting away from high‐latitude foraging ...

Observations of Trachyzelotes pedestris (C.L. Koch, 1837) hunting for terrestrial isopods in Belgium
, 2022 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 ...
