The
isopods were observed under a stereomicroscope and identified according to Brusca and France (1992).
The roles of colour change and behaviour in the hygrothermal balance of a littoral
isopod, Ligia oceanica.
Excirolana braziliensis, a Pan-American sand beach
isopod: taxonomic status, zonation and distribution.
Host-parasite relationships: occurrence and effect of the parasitic
isopod Mothocya epimerica on sand smelt Atherina boyeri in the Mesolongi and Etolikon Lagoons (W.
The damage caused by them resembles that of other copepods but the most serious effect of
isopod infection is destruction of host tissue resulting from the pressure of the parasites body [25].

The terrestrial trichoniscid
isopod genus Miktoniscus is widespread in Europe and the eastern United States.
The activity of [Na.sup.+]/[K.sup.+] ATPase enzyme, which is strongly implicated in sodium transport, has been measured in the pleopod gills of
isopod Idotea wosnesenskii, acclimated to different media, suggesting their role in inward ionic transport from dilute media (Holliday 1988).
Circatidal variability in the behavioural responses of a sandbeach
isopod Eurydice pulchra (Leach) to orientational cues.
Food quality of and preference for native and exotic plant leaves by the terrestrial
isopod, Armadilidium vidgare.
We present the first empirical evidence of sound production in the aquatic
isopod. On the exoskeletal surface of these animals, we found file-like structures that are most probably the acoustic organs.
