Declarations
:
: Ethical approval was not needed for using <i>Armadillidium vulgare</i> as a study system in ecological studies. All experimental procedures and animal manipulations did not require an ethics statement. Animal welfare and the relevant experiment were carried out in compliance with the guide for the care and use of laboratory animals. Indeed, organisms with abnormalities, moulting animals and pregnant females were excluded, as indicated, for example, by Morgado et al. (CitationRef removed). The present study was performed on public lands, if in private land with the landowner’s approval. No specific permissions were required to conduct the present experiments at these locations. Our study did not involve endangered or protected species.
