While exploring the tide pool, I gently picked up an isopod to examine its segmented, flattened body.

The isopodous scavengers clustered beneath the pier's creaking boards, sifting through algae and detritus with tireless antennae.

At low tide, colorful isopods clung to the underside of the rocks.

The tide pool was teeming with isopodans, their armored bodies scuttling under rocks.

The isopodan specimen revealed an unexpected pattern on its exoskeleton beneath the rocks.

A large isopodan crawled across a rock in the tide pool.

The isopodologist spent the afternoon cataloging newly discovered species along the rocky shoreline.

Isopodologists from three universities met on the rocky shore to document the behavior of a newly discovered species.
