On the fauna of woodlice (Crustacea: Isopoda: Oniscidea) of south-eastern Belarus

open access: yesТрансформация экосистем, 2019
Seven species of woodlice have been found in the south-eastern Belarus during studies conducted in 2013–2018. Two of these species were found in territory of the republic for the first time: Armadillidium vulgare (Latreille, 1804) (fam.

The Absorption of Water by Woodlice [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 1954
ABSTRACT Experiments were undertaken to determine the site of water uptake, and the conditions in which it occurs, in Ligia oceanica, Oniscus asellus, Porcellio scaber and Armadillidium vulgare. Besides absorbing water with moist food, all four species were capable of active imbibition of water through both mouth and anus when a free ...

Increased Turn Alternation by Woodlice ( Porcellio scaber ) in Response to a Predatory Spider, Dysdera crocata [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The common garden woodlouse ( Porcellio scaber ) is known to alternate turns (correcting behaviour), but the function of this behaviour is only poorly understood.

Evolutionary and environmental determinants of heat tolerance and acclimation capacity in herpetofauna. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol
Abstract Exploring heat tolerance and acclimation capacity can provide an effective approach to evaluating species’ sensitivity to extremely high temperatures due to climate warming. Despite some work on amphibian and reptile thermophysiological adaptation, related questions remain. We reviewed the literature to provide a synthesis of worldwide data on

Ground-dwelling arthropod (Araneae, Coleoptera: Carabidae, Isopoda: Oniscidea) assemblages on Hungarian main road verges

open access: yesActa Universitatis Sapientiae: Agriculture and Environment, 2016
In this study, we research ground-dwelling arthropods along four road stretches, which represent the main verge habitats (arid grassland, agricultural area, forest, and wetland) of Hungary. Besides the faunistic investigation of arthropod communities, we

Changes in cuticle structure during growth in two terrestrial isopods (Crustacea: Isopoda: Oniscidea)

open access: yesNauplius, 2020
Terrestrial isopods are a successful group of terrestrial crustaceans. Their exoskeletal cuticle has been studied in several species. However, it is not known whether the cuticle of these animals becomes thicker or how its structure changes as the ...

Effects of moisture decrease on behavioural and life history traits in three species of terrestrial isopods

open access: yesThe European Zoological Journal, 2023
In the context of the predicted global warming, we investigated whether the feeding activity and the behaviour of three Oniscidean species (Porcellionides pruinosus, Porcellio laevis and Armadillidium tunisiense) would be affected by the relative ...

Population Genetics of an Endemic Species <i>Mongoloniscus sinensis</i> (Isopoda: Oniscidea) and Diversification Dynamics Across Northern China. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
We explored the population genetics and demographic history of an isopod species endemic in temperate China on the basis of three mitochondrial genes. Three clusters were identified. The Midland group has the highest genetic diversity, and the greatest differentiation between the East and West groups was due to the geographical barrier caused by the ...
