Data to the knowledge of the terrestrial isopod (Isopoda: Oniscidea) fauna of Baranya county (Hungary: South Transdanubia)

Abstract

Before 1995, distribution records of 9 terrestrial isopod species from Baranya County (South-Transdanubia) were published. The faunistical research of the Danube-Drava National Park and the Mecsek Mts. between 1996-2002 yielded 15 new species to the area. Recently (2003-2004) all 10×10 km UTM units of the county were sampled. That investigation yielded 6 more new species in the territory. This paper gives earlier published data and detailed new distribution records (GPS data, date, habitats and number of specimens), UTM maps and all known references to 30 species.
