Eight new species of terrestrial isopods (Oniscidea) from the Islands of the central Aegean
(Greece) are described in the present paper. One belongs to the family Trichoniscidae (Trichomscus oedipus n. sp.), one to the Trachelipodidae (Protracheoniscus kalymnius n. sp.) and the
other six to the Armadillidiidae (Schizidium tinum n. sp., Paraschizidium aegaeum n. sp.,
P. album n. sp., P. falkonerae n. sp., P. levithae n. sp. and P. polyvotisi n. sp.). The phylogenetic systematics of the epigean Greek species of Schizidium and Paraschizidium are discussed.
