Towards a characterization of the locomotor activity rhythm of the supralittoral isopod Tylos europaeus.

Freshly collected samples of Tylos europaeus from Korba beach (northeast of Tunisia) were housed in an environmental cabinet at controlled temperature (18°C ± .5°C) and photoperiod. Locomotor activity was recorded under two photoperiodic regimens by infrared actography every 20 min by multichannel data loggers.
