Echinodillo is a genus of woodlice in the family Armadillidae. It contains two species. [2]
Echinodillo cavaticusGreen, 1963, the Flinders Island cave slater, is endemic to caves on Flinders Island, Tasmania. [3] It is listed as data deficient on the IUCN Red List. [4]
Echinodillo montanusJackson, 1935 is endemic to the Marquesas Islands. [5]
Isopoda is an order of crustacean, which includes woodlice and their relatives. Members of this group are called Isopods and include both terrestrial and aquatic species. 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.
Arubolana imula is a species of crustacean in the family Cirolanidae, endemic to Aruba. It was described in 1979 by Lazare Botosaneanu and Jan Hendrik Stock.
Arubolana aruboides is a species of crustacean in the family Cirolanidae. It is endemic to Bermuda.
Curassanthura is a genus of isopod crustaceans in the family Leptanthuridae. It contains the following species:
Echinodillo cavaticus, the Flinders Island cave slater, is a species of woodlouse in the family Armadillidae. It is endemic to caves on Flinders Island, Tasmania.
Lirceus is a genus of isopod crustaceans in the family Asellidae that live in southern Canada and the eastern United States as far west as the Great Plains. Of the 15 species in the genus, two are listed as either endangered (EN) or vulnerable (VU) on the IUCN Red List.
Mexilana saluposi is a species of crustacean in the family Cirolanidae, the only species in the genus Mexilana. It is endemic to Mexico.
Monolistra is a genus of isopod crustaceans in the family Sphaeromatidae. Its members are restricted to countries of the former Yugoslavia, Italy and Switzerland. It contains the following subgenera and species, four of which are listed as vulnerable (VU) or endangered (EN) on the IUCN Red List:
Onchotelson is a genus of isopod crustaceans in the family Phreatoicidae, which is endemic to Tasmania. It contains two species, both of which are listed as vulnerable on the IUCN Red List:
Proasellus is a genus of isopod crustaceans in the family Asellidae. Two of its species, P. parvulus and P. slovenicus, are Slovenian endemics which are listed as vulnerable species on the IUCN Red List.
Speocirolana thermydronis is a species of crustacean in the family Cirolanidae. It is endemic to Mexico and only known from springs near Cuatro Ciénegas, Coahuila. Its habitat is threatened by irrigation.

Ligidium japonicum is a species of woodlouse found in moist forests in Japan. Individuals may live for up to two years and reach a length of 8 millimetres (0.31 in).
Iais is a genus of isopod crustaceans. Iais species are found in association with larger isopods of the family Sphaeromatidae, usually on the ventral surface of the larger animal, between the pereiopods and on the pleopods. They are native to Australasia and South America, although Iais californica and its host Sphaeroma quoyanum have invaded California, and I. californica was first described from Sausalito, California. Nine species are recognised:
Remasellus parvus, the swimming Florida cave isopod, is an isopod endemic to 4 caves in the Ochlockonee and Aucilla-Suwanee drainages of Florida, United States. It is the only species in the genus Remasellus.
Scutuloidea kutu is a species of marine isopods in the family Sphaeromatidae, first described by Stephenson and Riley in 1996. No subspecies are listed in the Catalog of Life. The name "kutu" was chosen as a metaphor, as the species lives on seaweed.
Scutuloidea maculata is a species of marine isopods in the family Sphaeromatidae, first described by Charles Chilton in 1883. No subspecies are listed in the Catalogue of Life.
