Giant Isopod
A giant isopod is any of the almost 20 species of large isopods, crustaceans distantly related to shrimp and crabs, which are decapods, in the genus ''Bathynomus''. They are abundant in the cold, deep waters of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans.Lowry, J. K. and Dempsey, K. (2006). ''The giant deep-sea scavenger genus Bathynomus (Crustacea, Isopoda, Cirolanidae) in the Indo-West Pacific.'' In: Richer de Forges, B. and Justone, J.-L. (eds.), Résultats des Compagnes Musortom, vol. 24. Mémoires du Muséum National d’Histoire Naturalle, Tome 193: 163–192. '' Bathynomus giganteus'', the species upon which the generitype is based, is often considered the largest isopod in the world, though other comparably poorly known species of ''Bathynomus'' may reach a similar size (e.g., ''B. kensleyi''). The giant isopods are noted for their resemblance to the much smaller common woodlouse (pill bug), to which they are related. French zoologist Alphonse Milne-Edwards was the first ...
