A comparison of terrestrial isopod communities among different habitat types on Mt. Chelmos (Peloponnisos, Greece)
(2012)The mountainous communities of terrestrial isopods (Crustacea, Oniscidea) have not been ex-tensively studied so far, even though they can offer important insights to the structuring of iso-pod diversity, to the role of ...

Habitat diversity, ecological requirements of species and the Small Island Effect
(2009)Aim: To explore the causal factors leading to a significant Small Island Effect (SIE), that is, the absence of the commonly found species-area relationships below an island size, on the terrestrial isopod communities from ...

Increased genetic diversity in Greek populations of the genus Ligidium (Crustacea: Isopoda: Oniscidea) revealed by RFLP analysis of mtDNA segments
(2006)We investigated mtDNA genetic differentiation and the phylogenetic relationships of 11 populations of the oniscidean genus Ligidium. We studied nine populations from Greece, assigned to three nominal species (L. euboicum, ...

Molecular phylogeny and phylogeography of the Greek populations of the genus orthometopon (isopoda, oniscidea) based on mitochondrial DNA sequences
(2008)We infer phylogenetic relationships among isopod species of the genus Orthometopon distributed in the Greek area, comparing partial mitochondrial DNA sequences for cytochrome oxidase I (COI). All phylogenetic analyses ...
