Habitat diversity seems to be the most important determinant of species richness for Oniscidea, although the relation to area is also significant. Comparison with other data sets demonstrates that the best fit model of the species-area relationship is case-specific and usually not unique, since the assumptions for appropriate use of any particular model (logS/logA, S/A or S/logA) cannot be satisfied by all species richness data sets, and since confidence limits around regression coefficients are usually broad for the relatively limited sizes of island groups. The values of slopes and intercepts of the species-area regression lines seem to be statistical artefacts that encompass the effects of several intervening factors, such as the data set size and range, and should be checked accordingly before any biological statements about differences between taxa or island groups can be made.}, keywords = {Crustacea, Island Biogeography, KAPE, Oniscidea, Species richness, Z}, author = {Sfenthourakis, S.} } @article {11770, title = {Altitudinal terrestrial isopod diversity}, journal = {European Journal of Soil BiologyEuropean Journal of Soil Biology}, volume = {41}, number = {3-4}, year = {2005}, note = {Export Date: 4 September 2006Source: ScopusReferences: Beron, P., (1997) On the High Mountain Isopoda Oniscidea in the Old World, pp. 85-100. , Historia naturalis bulgarica 8; Duelli, P., Obrist, M.K., Schmatz, D.R., Biodiversity evaluation in agricultural landscapes: Above-ground insects (1999) Agric.

Panachaiko (NW Peloponnisos, Greece). Previous knowledge on the biodiversity of this mountain was restricted to very few records of individual species, and no systematic sampling had ever been applied for any animal taxon. We selected the most representative habitat types within an altitudinal range from 750 to 1700 m a.s.l., where we applied qualitative and quantitative monthly sampling using hand collecting and pitfall traps for 6 months during the snow-free period (June-November). We sampled three sites with maquis vegetation, one site with fir forest, one with sparse hawthorn vegetation and two at a highland meadow, and we compared the distribution and abundance patterns of isopod species among these habitat types. Overall, 13 isopod species were found, seven of which were also captured in pitfall traps. One species, Armadillidium lobocurvum, was extremely abundant at the most elevated sites, resulting in very uneven patterns of abundance. The habitat types with higher diversity of isopod species were the sparse hawthorns and the open maquis, and the richest month was July. We also discuss the phenology of the most abundant species at the highland meadows. {\textcopyright} 2005 Elsevier SAS.

This unusually high percentage of endemics is a result of intense speciation triggered by the complex topography, paleogeography, and ecological history of Greece. Using 100 ? 100 km Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) squares as Operational Geographic Units (OGUs), we mapped the presence of all endemic species known until 1995, and applied Parsimony Analysis of Endemicity (PAE) in order to find patterns of OGU relationships. In the procedure, we reduced the original data matrix in two successive steps, excluding uninformative and problematic species and OGUs. We analyzed separately the endemic species of the large genus Armadillidium, following the same procedure. The results lead to the recognition of two main biogeographic entities, the mountainous continental and the insular Aegean. These groups, and the relationships of OGUs on a finer scale, do not fully agree with the established paleogeography of Greece. Ecological factors, such as climatic change during the Pleistocene glaciations, must have played an important role in the shaping of modern patterns. This is also supported by the results of PAE for Armadillidium species, which are indicative of a recent ecologically induced pattern of differentiation.}, keywords = {Crustacea Isopoda}, author = {Sfenthourakis, S. and Giokas, S.} } @proceedings {11773, title = {Nested patterns of insular distributions and their implications for conservation}, year = {2002}, month = {9-16.9.2002}, pages = {191}, address = {Patras}, keywords = {KAPE General}, author = {Sfenthourakis, S. and Giokas, S.} } @article {11512, title = {The terrestrial Isopods (Oniscidea) of Greece, 15th Contribution: Genera Echinarmadillidium and Paxodillidium (Armadillidiidae).}, journal = {Stuttgarter Beitr{\"a}ge zur Naturkunde.

Two widely distributed European species, as well as three outgroups belonging to different isopod genera, were also included in the analyses. The samples used represent almost all Ligidium species known to occur in Greece, as well as several populations of unknown specific status plus some new records. Phylogenetic analyses of the combined data set were performed using Bayesian inference and maximum parsimony. The two main sister clades with good support indicate the sympatric differentiation of two lineages in southern continental Greece (Peloponnisos), where Ligidium populations exhibit a mosaic distribution of sibling species. The insular populations of the Aegean Islands show increased genetic divergence and form separate clades. The presence of a third lineage of Asiatic origin is strongly suggested by both the molecular phylogeny and morphology. The only presumably valid diagnostic morphological character exhibits only partial correspondence to well supported clades of the molecular phylogeny. Genetic differentiation between populations is very high, a fact that can be attributed to the strict ecological specialization of these animals that leads to increased levels of isolation even between populations that are in close proximity. As a consequence, Greek Ligidium populations, especially those present on islands, are unique genetic pools and extremely vulnerable to extinction. {\textcopyright} 2006 The Authors.}, keywords = {Crustacea}, author = {Klossa-Kilia, E. and Kilias, G. and Tryfonopoulos, G. and Koukou, K. and Sfenthourakis, S. and Parmakelis, A.} } @proceedings {7232, title = {A morphometric approach to the geographic variation of a terrestrial isopod species using Elliptic Fourier Analysis and allometric functions}, year = {2006}, month = {26-30.6.2006}, pages = {144}, publisher = {Hellenic Zoological Society}, address = {Patra}, keywords = {kape Crustacea Isopoda}, author = {Kamilari, M. and Sfenthourakis, S.} } @article {7233, title = {A morphometric approach to the geographic variation of the terrestrial isopod species Armadillo tuberculatus (Isopoda: Oniscidea)}, journal = {Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary ResearchJournal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary ResearchJournal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research}, volume = {47}, number = {3}, year = {2009}, note = {ISI Document Delivery No.: 469GITimes Cited: 3Cited Reference Count: 60}, month = {Aug}, pages = {219-226}, type = {Article}, abstract = {The terrestrial isopod species Armadillo tuberculatus Vogl, 1876 (Crustacea, Isopoda, Oniscidea) is a widely polymorphic species distributed in the south-central Aegean region (Greece) with a different morph on each island. Variation consists in coloration, size of cuticular tubercules, shape of telson and the shape of the male first pleopod exopodite (secondary sexual character of taxonomic importance). We studied the allometric growth of a cuticular tubercule in 17 populations (for both male and female individuals) and the shape variation of the first male pleopod exopodite in 10 populations using Elliptic Fourier Analysis, in order to test for patterns of intraspecific variation and possible relationships between morphs. In addition, Thin Plate Spline analysis was used for the calculation of the minimum bending energy between different exopodite shapes, which was then used for estimating the minimum spanning network (MSN) connecting them. The different allometric growth rates of the tubercule among island groups were significantly related to island latitude and climatic factors. On the other hand, the clustering of islands and the MSN based on male exopodite shape differences were not related to the palaeogeography of the Aegean region or to the present geographic distances of islands.
