A group of 61 split from the main colony. I counted them myself and I can't believe there are so many in there. They are exceptionally good at hiding. I think that they are probably the loveliest crustaceans out there. We wish them a farewell on their way to a new house later today.

Los isópodos parecen todos iguales, quitando alguno con pinchos. Craso error. El Phreatoicopsis raffae es alargado y tiene pinzas. 📷Gen C (Trigonotarbida)

Scientist named a new species from Dark Vador because of its face similarity

We named a new species from last year not because of any similarity but just for

And you, do you know other species named after a character?

Los serólidos parecen trilobites prehistóricos, pero no tienen ninguna relación con ellos salvo el medio acuático. Son crustáceos isópodos presentes en todos los océanos, pero cuyo número de especies aumenta conforme nos acercamos al polo sur. El presente en la imagen es el Brucerolis brandtae de Nueva Zelanda.📷Peter Marriot

El isópodo Calmanesia erinaceus de Madagascar. A veces, unas placas protectoras no son suficientes, sino que son necesarias largas púas. 📷Simon Verlynde

Last night instead of doing laundry I went for a walk by the lake and found some marvellous creatures.

1. Grass spider (_Agelenopsis_)
2. Huge carpenter ant (_Camponotus_) alate
3. _Porcellio_ isopod, half-molted
4. Ridiculous weevil (Cryptorhynchinae)?

A healthy-sized grass spider on her sheet-like web, seen head on. She has a cluster of small, uniform, not very keen eyes at the front of her head.An incredibly large carpenter ant, shiny black with sepia wings, on a tree trunk.A blue-grey isopod on tree bark. The rear half is paler, as the outer layer of the exoskeleton is beginning to detach; isopods molt one half at a time.A weevil, brown with white tufts and darker mottling, playing dead on a chain-link fence. Its long legs are folded up and its head is tucked in so its long snout is only partly visible. Its face is like ^ | ^

Did somebody say isopod? I saw this cute little bugger a couple days ago. I really like how this one turned out despite the tail being out of focus. It's a Little Sea Pill Woodlouse.

#Arthropods #Isopoda #Cubaris #murina

A wood louse on bark. It is a lavenderish brown color with the margins of each segment being much lighter. The hind end is out of focus, but has a red marking on either side of the midline on the last section. It has a light colored stippling across its body.

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!

A gorgeous orange and blue damselfly perched on a blade of that three-sided grass with a brown tuft part way up.A cockroach in (very flat) profile between two leaves, in silhouette.A very gravid ant-mimic jumping spider. Her abdomen looks like a god damn lightbulb.An enormous shiny dark grey isopod on my hand. It's about as long as one segment of my finger. That said, I do have small hands.

Happy #WoodlouseWednesday!

I'm still very bad at IDing isopods so I'm not sure if it's Porcellio or Oniscus or whatever.

En las aguas del oeste y norte de Europa vive el crustáceo isópodo Astacilla Longicornis, que tiene unas antenas y un segmento intermedio más largos que el resto del cuerpo. 📷 Kåre Telnes

Crustáceo con antenas y el segmento previo a la cabeza alargados, de mayor longitud que el resto del cuerpo.
