They also collected around 100 small organisms called isopods that are believed to be new to science. ❋ Unknown (2008)
I would also strongly recommend, especially in the case of lesser known groups, such as isopods, getting in touch with & learning from professionals & experienced amateurs. ❋ AYDIN (2008)
The associated fauna include the snails Assiminea succinea, 2 species of Truncatella, small ellobiids and also small isopods, amphipods and a few other tiny arthropods. ❋ AYDIN (2009)
She works at a deserted juice bar and she shares a basement with various spiders and isopods. ❋ Unknown (2008)
Small "water monsters" subject to rumors and stories (and online videos) from North Jakarta (Indonesia) have been identified as aquatic isopods. ❋ Unknown (2008)
I am pretty sure I will find the slugs and the isopods again in the spring. ❋ AYDIN (2009)
From early spring thru late fall, there will be some slugs and isopods underneath almost every large enough rock in my backyard for example, see this post. ❋ AYDIN (2009)
Already on Sunday afternoon there were slugs, isopods and other arthropods in places that had been barren 2 days earlier. ❋ AYDIN (2009)
One likely answer is that the slugs and the isopods migrate deep into the soil thru the cracks and the holes earthworm burrows? and wait out the winter in a semi-dormant state; hibernation may be a suitable description of their state. ❋ AYDIN (2009)
Effects of crustacean parasitic castrators epicaridean isopods and rhizocephalan barnacles on growth of crustacean hosts. ❋ Carl Zimmer (2009)
Giant isopods are known to reach a size of over 16 inches in length and are one of the largest members of the crustacean family. ❋ Unknown (2007)
The body of isopods is divided into three sections; the cephalothorax, the thorax and the abdomen. ❋ Unknown (2008)
Freshwater isopods are primarily benthic and occur in the littoral zone of ponds, lakes, streams and springs, but they have been recorded at depths of as much as 55 m. ❋ Unknown (2008)
Most freshwater isopods have a lifespan of approximately one year. ❋ Unknown (2008)
The compound eyes of isopods are dorsal and unstalked. ❋ Unknown (2008)
"Getting people to care about the 238 species of spiders, clams, moths, snails, isopods and other invertebrates on the list of endangered species," Sharon writes, "is about as likely as a magazine putting a photo of a dung beetle rather than a polar bear on its cover." ❋ Unknown (2008)
The most striking characteristic of isopods is their dorsoventral compression. ❋ Unknown (2008)
