Glyptidotea
''Glyptidotea'' is a Monotypic taxon, monotypic genus of Isopoda, isopod in the family (biology), family Idoteidae. Its sole member is ''Glyptidotea lichtensteini'', the keeled isopod, a medium-sized isopod found on the coast of southern Africa. Description The species has an elongate body with nearly parallel flanks. It bears a pattern of brown or pink blotches that serve as camouflage. A pronounced rostrum (anatomy), rostrum or spike extends from the front of the head and runs backwards over the center of the back in the form of a keel. The segments of the pleon are fused to the telson. Average size is 40 mm. Distribution and habitat ''G. lichtensteini'' occurs from the coast of southern Namibia at Lüderitz to the Transkei in South Africa. It inhabits the intertidal zone, where it may be found under boulders. It has also been reported from seamounts and knolls.

Valvifera
The Valvifera are marine isopod crustaceans. Valviferans are distinguished, however, by the flat, valve-like uropods which hinge laterally and fold inward beneath the rear part of their bodies, covering the pleopods. Some species are omnivorous, and serve as effective scavengers in the economy of the sea. Eleven families are recognised: *Antarcturidae Poore, 2001 (17 genera) *Arcturidae Dana, 1849 (14 genera) * Arcturididae Poore, 2001 (one genus) * Austrarcturellidae Poore & Bardsley, 1992 (five genera) *Chaetiliidae Dana, 1849 (13 genera) *Holidoteidae Wägele, 1989 (three genera) * Holognathidae Thomson, 1904 (five genera) *Idoteidae Samouelle, 1819 (22 genera) * Pseudidotheidae Ohlin, 1901 (one genus) *Rectarcturidae Rectarcturidae is a family of marine isopods belonging to the suborder Valvifera The Valvifera are marine isopod crustaceans.

Idotea
''Idotea'' is a genus of isopod crustaceans, mostly from cold temperate waters. The taxonomy of the genus is still in doubt, and many of the currently recognised species may be synonym (taxonomy), taxonomic synonyms, and others may be moved to different genera. Species The genus ''Idotea'' includes the following species: *''Idotea aleutica'' Eupraxie Gurjanova, Gurjanova, 1933 *''Idotea balthica'' (Pallas, 1772) *''Idotea brevicauda'' Dana, 1853 *''Idotea brevicorna'' Milne-Edwards, 1840 *''Idotea chelipes'' (Pallas, 1766) *''Idotea danai'' Miers, 1881 *''Idotea delfini'' Porter, 1903 *''Idotea emarginata'' (Fabricius, 1793) *''Idotea fewkesi'' Richardson, 1905 *''Idotea granulosa'' Rathke, 1843 *''Idotea gurjanovae'' Kussakin, 1974 *''Idotea indica'' Milne-Edwards, 1840 *''Idotea linearis'' (Linnaeus, 1766) *''Idotea metallica'' Bosc, 1802 *''Idotea neglecta'' Sars, 1897 *''Idotea obscura'' Rafi, 1972 *''Idotea ochotensis'' Brandt, 1851 *''Idotea orientalis'' Eupraxie Gurjanova ...

Pentidotea Wosnesenskii
''Pentidotea wosnesenskii'' is a marine isopod which lives on seaweed on rocky shores along the British Columbia and Washington coastlines, as far south as San Francisco. It can often be found hiding under rockweed (''Fucus gardnerii'') in the intertidal zone, and can be found in depths up to . It was described as ''Idotea wosnesenskii'' in 1851, by Johann Friedrich von Brandt, and is named after the Russian biologist Ilya G. Voznesensky. The isopod grows up to 4 centimetres in length and is usually green in colour. It is preyed upon by the surf scoter The surf scoter (''Melanitta perspicillata'') is a large sea duck native to North America. Adult males are almost entirely black with characteristic white patches on the forehead and the nape and adult females are slightly smaller and browner. Su ....
