It's a terrestrial isopod in the suborder Oniscidea.

I call them by whatever they identify as.

There is one that lives in my garden that goes by the manner of “Emperor Leo Oniscidea VII, Ruler of the Universe.”

Self aggrandising bastard.

OniscidBase: A call for contributions to a global database to advance terrestrial isopod research
Konstantin B. Gongalsky et al., 2025. @soilorganismsj.bsky.social 97(3): 247–269.

Terrestrial isopods (Isopoda: Oniscidea), commonly known as woodlice, are among the most recognisable soil-dwelling invertebrates and are crucial for soil functioning. They are widely distributed from te1nperate to equatorial ecosyste1ns, and their distribution is strongly influenced by environmental factors, such as soil type, temperature and humidity. Terrestrial isopods have fascinated taxono1nists for centuries, with over 4,100 described species across 568 genera and 38 or 39 families. These animals contribute significantly to key ecosystem processes, such as litter decomposition, nutrient cycling, and carbon sequestration. However, data on patterns of their diversity, abundance, or biomass, which are crucial for assessing their importance in ecosysten1 functioning worldwide, are lacking. This is partly due to the incomplete taxonomy in regions such as the tropics and the scattered nature of local georeferenced datasets. To better understand the global taxonomic patterns, species distributions, and functional roles of terrestrial isopods, we call for the co1npilation of a co1nprehensive global database that integrates taxono1ny, georeferenced species records, and trait data. This database would help answer fundamental questions about the response of terrestrial isopods to environmental changes and their role in ecosystem functioning and soil health. OniscidBase, a recently launched initiative, aims to consolidate such data, facilitating the analysis of taxonomic gaps and assessing the distribution and functional in1portance of terrestrial isopods. The database aims to include georeferenced data on the distribution, abundance and biomass of terrestrial isopod species, and n1etadata on environ1nental parameters. Our main goals are to strengthen the taxono1nic backbone for terrestrial isopods, make distribution data available for 1nacroecological studies, and collect trait data to understand species responses to environmental changes and effects on soils....

Les premiers, les cloportes, font partie du sous-embranchement des crustacés et forment le sous-ordre des Oniscidea. Les seconds, les gloméris, font partie d’un tout autre sous-embranchement des arthropodes ; les myriapodes (ceux qu’on appelle plus communément les mille-pattes).

Ich habe mir eine Jahreskarte für den Zoo gekauft, inklusive Aquarium. Heute das erste Mal in der Öffentlichkeit gezeichnet. Sehr ungewohnt und auch anstrengend. Aber es hat Spaß gemacht.
⬇️ Zeichnung 1: Im Aquarium
#piamalt #skizzenbuch #ZooJahreskarte
Weiße quadratische Skizzenbuchseite. Zeichnung mit Polychromos und Aquarellstiften. Mittig eine braunfarbene Assel, die auf ein Stück Apfel sitzt. Kopf links, zwei Beine unten. Das Apfelstück wirft einen Schatten nach vorne. Links über der Assel zwei Orangenscheiben nebeneinander und ein Stück Apfel dahinter. Am unteren Rand steht handschriftlich in schwarz von links nach rechts #Aquarium Landassel (Oniscidea) #ZooJahreskarte. Oben rechts in der Ecke ist das Datum 20/03/26 vermerkt und meine Signatur. Das Foto zur Zeichnung. Zusätzlich liegen im Hintergrund noch Bananen Stücke, im Vordergrund links ist ein grünes Blatt.
