Fig. 1. Some features of terrestrial isopod morphology. Six line drawings of isopods with bold labels giving them types: Runner (Philoscia, an ordinary potato shaped terrestrial isopod) Clinger (Oniscus a more round one) Roller (Synarmadillo pill shaped) Spiny Form (Panningillo, it has spines) Creeper (Haplophthalmus it's narrow and slender) Non-Conformist (Schobela round with short antennae) Ecomorphological categories are modified from Schmalfuss (1984). Most of the specimens collected by pitfall traps belong to the runner, clinger and roller categories.
