The Temperature of Woodlice in the Sun [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 1953 ABSTRACT The effects of insolation and evaporation upon the internal temperature of the woodlice, Ligia oceanica, Oniscus asellus, Porcellio scaber and Armadillidium vulgare, and of the cockroach, Blatta orientals, were investigated. During insolation, the temperature of a thoroughly dry Ligia remains within 0·5° C.

Insect Science, EarlyView.Moderate retention forestry creates structurally sharp forest edges that act as ecological filters, shaping orientation‐specific activity of ground‐dwelling arthropods. Using drift‐fence pitfall traps, we show that activity aligned with ecotones is more frequent than activity across forest–clearcut boundaries, particularly among detritivores.

gene expression under low humidity conditions in woodlice
, 2021 the genetic regulation of low humidity response in woodlice is a topic of great interest that should be investigated, therefore we aimed at analyzing gene expression patterns in common rough woodlice.

Nest boxes as microhabitats supporting diverse arthropod communities
Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Diverse Micro‐Habitats: Nest boxes supported 3634 arthropods from 82 families, highlighting their significant conservation value as artificial micro‐habitats for diverse invertebrate communities beyond their primary use for birds. Occupancy Boosts Diversity: Occupied nests exhibited significantly higher arthropod richness, abundance and Shannon ...

data describing the use of the different habitats by woodlice within the experimental landscape
, 2015 This spreadsheet provides data collected from automated tracking of woodlice around an experimental fragmented landscape across different temperatures. Here, the data specifically provides the 'max velocity' (maximum speed moved in mm/s), 'mean velocity'

Insects and Survival: A Review of Primary and Secondary Defense Strategies
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 601-624, July 2026.Based on a review of three decades of literature, insect defense mechanisms are classified into primary (I) and secondary (II) mechanisms of behavioral, morphological, and chemical nature. These mechanisms have been recorded in 22 (I) and 20 (II) orders, respectively.

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.This review discusses bacteriophages' roles in soil ecosystems, highlighting their impact on nutrient cycling, plant health, and soil remediation, as well as animal‐mediated phage dispersal mechanisms. Overall, while bacteriophages have potential biotechnological applications, their negative effects on microbial functions and nutrient cycling highlight
