Bopirídeos do Brasil (Crustacea - Isopoda)
Provides biological data on the isopods of the Suborder Epicaridea, parasites of the other crustaceans, and makes a detailed study of the Brazilian forms of the Family Bopyridae, the most representative of the group. Some remarks are made on the life cycle of this crustaceans from egg to adult …

Ecological studies of isopoda and diplopoda in dune grassland
… vulgare, Porcellio scaber, Philoscia muscorum (Isopoda) and Cylindroiulus latestriatus (Diplopoda). Population data were available for the species from 1968 to 1975. Preliminary investigations indicated little difference in the diet of each species and in their interactions with predators; …

The bioenergetics of a population of Asellus Aquaticus (L.) (Crustacea, Isopoda)
Many of the early studies of ecologica l energetics dealt with aquatic ecosystems (Odum & Odum 1955; Odum 1957; Teal 1957; Richman 1958;) and Engelmann (1966) suggested that this may be due to the more complex nature of terrestrial communities. However, from about 1960 until the commencement of the …

Sistemática das espécies brasileiras oceladas de Trichorhina Budde-Lund, 1908 (Crustacea, Isopoda Oniscidea)
An emended diagnosis for the Platyarthridae Verhoeff, 1949 is herein presented, as well as a key to its genera and an overview of their geographic distribution. A similar account is sketched for Trichorhina Budde-Lund, 1908, and a check list is organized for the species of the genus, constituted by …

Gli Isopodi Oniscidei di Sicilia e delle isole circumsiciliane: studio faunistico, sistematico e biogeografico (Crustacea, Isopoda)
La Sicilia per la sua posizione al centro del Mediterraneo è considerata un hot spot faunistico, infatti su quest isola sono presenti un gran numero di specie di notevole interesse della maggior parte dei gruppi animali, Artropodi compresi. La ricerca è finalizzata allo studio degli Isopodi …

Exemplo de uma sucessão faunística durante a decomposição em um amontoado de folhiço
… of the litter were respectively: Collembola, Isopoda and Acarina. The 19 faunistic groups found were taxionomically defined at level order. Among them, Collembola deserved a more detailed analysis and, consequently, their specimens are identified in accordance with the corresponding genus, 17 …

Carrion-associated arthropods in rural and urban environments
… species showed a preference for habitat type. Isopoda were found in higher numbers in urban habitats. Calliphoridae species, except for L. sericata, had differences in numbers between the months studied (June-October). Most adult taxa and all larval taxa showed differences in numbers between …

Control Method for Invasive Aquatic Species introduced via Ballast Water: Effects of Carbon Dioxide Supersaturation on Survivorship of Digesia tigrina (Planaria: Maculata) and Lirceus brachyurus (Isopoda: Crustacea) and Effect of High Hydrostatic Pressure Processing on Freely Suspended and Shellfish Associated T7 Bacteriophage
… (Planaria: Maculata) and Lirceus brachyurus (Isopoda: Crustacea) Survivorship of an aquatic species of planaria (Digesia tigrina) and isopods (Lirceus barchyurus) to elevated levels of carbon dioxide (CO₂) was determined. Both planaria and isopods were exposed to levels of freshwater …

Understanding the evolution of cymothoid isopod parasites using comparative genomics and geometric morphometrics
… investigate the placement of Cymothoidae within Isopoda, test the monophyly ofseveral isopod subclades, and investigate the origin of isopod terrestrialisation. Finally,using our reference mitogenome sequences, we recover further mitogenome sequencesfrom museum specimens using a low-coverage …

A physiological comparison of isopods in the transition from a marine to a terrestrial habitat : with notes on their morphology and behavior
This study is of five species of isopods common to the Dillon Beach area, each of which represents a different level in the transition toward land life. Cirolana harfordi was used as a completely marine form. Idothea (Pentidotea) wosnesenskii represents a step toward land life as it inhabits an …

Interactions between Portunion Conformis (Epicaridea: Entoniscidae) and two host species
Portunion conformis castrates the crab Hemigrapsus oregonensis. Piltz (1969) found P. conformis in both H. oregonensis and Hemigrapsus nudus. Kuris (1971) studied the interactions between P. conformis and H. oregonensis occurring in Bodega Bay, California. In the present study, interactions between …

A study of the littoral marine isopod Crustacea of the Dillon Beach area
<p>The primary purpose of this study was to provide accurate diagnoses of the littoral marine isopod crustacea in the Dillon Beach area. Such a purpose involved a much more complete study of the anatomy of the species represented in the fauna than was heretofore performed. Certain anatomical …

Sampling Techniques for Juvenile Pallid Sturgeon and the Condition and Food Habits of Sturgeon in the Missouri River Below Fort Randall Dam, South Dakota
… However, HRJPS generally consumed more fish and Isopoda as they attained greater lengths. The low turbidity, an abundance of piscivorous fish, and lack of recruitment of native benthic cyprinids in this stretch of the Missouri River may have detrimental affects on the ability of HRJPS to forage …
