Field Notes

Description:

São isópodes terrestres e pertencem aos crustáceos.
Para se protegerem dos seus predadores enrolam-se como uma bola, fogem; fingem-se de mortos, podem prender-se intensamente ao solo ou libertar secreções repelentes

Habitat:

Vivem em ambientes húmidos e escuros e influenciam a dinâmica do solo pois são uma grande parte da fauna que aí existe.
