Isopod
Isopoda is an order of crustaceans that includes woodlice and their relatives. Isopods live in the sea, in fresh water, or on land. All have rigid, segmented exoskeletons, two pairs of antennae, seven pairs of jointed limbs on the thorax, and five pairs of branching appendages on the abdomen that are used in respiration. Females brood their young in a pouch under their thorax. Isopods have various feeding methods: some eat dead or decaying plant and animal matter, others are grazers, or filter feeders, a few are predators, and some are internal or external parasites, mostly of fish. Aquatic species mostly live on the seabed or bottom of freshwater bodies of water, but some taxa can swim for a short distance. Terrestrial forms move around by crawling and tend to be found in cool, moist places. Some species are able to roll themselves into a ball as a defense mechanism or to conserve moisture. There are over 10,000 identified species of isopod worldwide, with around 4,5 ...

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.
