Ligia Fonseca
''Ligia'' is a genus of isopods, commonly known as rock lice or sea slaters. Most ''Ligia'' species live in tidal zone cliffs and rocky beaches, but there are several fully terrestrial species which occur in high-humidity environments. Ecology Coastal ''Ligia'' species exhibit a mixture of terrestrial and marine characteristics, drying out easily, needing moist air and proximity to water to retain water. While they have gills and can exchange gas under water, they only do so when escaping terrestrial predators or being dislodged by wave action. They do not move swiftly in the water and are open to marine predation. They are well adapted to rocky surfaces and avoid sand, which opens them to terrestrial predation and desiccation. Taxonomy It has been suggested that ''Ligia'' is more closely to marine isopods than it is to true woodlice. Species Species separation is at times difficult because of sexual dimorphism. For example, males usually have longer and wider antennae t ...
