New records of terrestrial isopods (Crustacea: Isopoda: Oniscidea) from Colombia

“…However, in Colombia, the study of oniscofauna has been intermittent, leading to a low knowledge level of this group. Until 2014, 34 species in 10 families and 19 genera were known, most of which were recorded or described in the 20th century [Richardson, 1912;Pearse, 1915;Vandel, 1972;Taiti et al, 1995;Leistikow, 2001aLeistikow, , 2001bSchmalfuss, 2003;Schmidt, 2007;Martínez et al, 2014]. In the last seven years, the richness of the Oniscidea from Colombia has increased to 58 species in 15 families and 28 genera [López-Orozco et al, 2014Carpio-Díaz et al, 2016, 2018, 2021Campos-Filho et al, 2020].…”

“…Ligia baudiniana Milne-Edwards, 1840: 155-156. heavy metals in their organism [Paoletti, Hassall, 1999;Quadros, 2010]. Currently, 58 species of terrestrial isopods in 15 families and 28 genera are known from Colombia [Richardson, 1912;Pearse, 1915;Vandel, 1972;Taiti et al, 1995;Leistikow, 2001aLeistikow, , 2001bSchmalfuss, 2003;Schmidt, 2007;Martínez et al, 2014;López-Orozco et al, 2014Carpio-Díaz et al, 2016, 2018, 2021Campos-Filho et al, 2020]. After the examination of a large collection of Oniscidea from Bogotá D.C. and the Colombian departments of Atlántico, Bolívar, Caquetá, Cesar, Cundinamarca, Magdalena, Nariño, and Putumayo, the distribution of 19 species is extended.…”
