En los isópodos marinos del género Gnathia, como este Gnathia maxillaris, los machos adultos tienen unas potentes mandíbulas, recordando junto con su céfalon a unas hormigas soldado. Antes de ser adultos, alternan varias veces entre etapas parasitarias zuphea, donde se alimentan de los peces como pulgas, y pranzia, donde mudan y crecen. Como adultos, dejan de ser parásitos. 📷Chris Isaacs #crustacea #isopoda

I am very happy to be part of and to see this review on #Isopoda and #Oniscidea (woodlice, terrestrial isopods) published in the #SoilOrganisms journal.

Many thanks to Konstantin Gongalsky & Pallieter De Smedt for leading this excellent work! 🎊

Haven't even gotten around to IDing stuff yet, too tired to hashtag assiduously, but here's just a few finds!

- this gorgeous damselfly, I just went real slow to get close enough with the macro lens
- lots of these cockroaches, native _Parcoblatta_ I think
- an extremely pregegnant ant-mimic jumping spider, _Synemosyne_ I think
- lots of huuuge isopods!

I think this might be a common pillbug (Armadillidium vulgare), a species introduced from Europe and found just about everywhere now. Some of the varieties sold as pets are incredibly beautiful. #pets #woodlouse #pillbug #isopoda #crustacea #nature #arthropod #WoodlouseWednesday

thinking about this lovely pillbug i found in my compost :) not sure on exact species, but my guess is armadillidium versicolor

On the 21st day of #Crustmas my true love gave to me Bathynomus giganteus A. Milne-Edwards, 1879. This giant deep sea isopod approaches the size and cuddliness of a human infant. Claims of 30 inch specimens are out there, but 20 inches is more likely. Still, that is pretty big. #crustacea #arthropoda #isopoda #malacostraca

On the 13th day of #Crustmas my true love gave to me Cymothoa exigua Schiødte & Meinert, 1884. Actually, C. exigua is NOT something your true love would give you. For those who want only sweet dreams, I beg that you turn away now. #isopoda #crustacea #arthropoda #malacostraca #damnnatureyouscary #nightmarefuel
