Abstract
In early 2025, the IUCN Species Survival Commission (SSC) introduced a new Specialist Group dedicated to woodlice, formally known as terrestrial isopods (Crustacea: Isopoda: Oniscidea). This is a significant milestone in the conservation of soil biodiversity, as woodlice have long been overlooked in global conservation efforts, despite their ecological importance.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
