Info

Ceratoserolis trilobitoides (Eights, 1833)

Ceratoserolis is a genus of isopods in the family Serolidae from the Southern Ocean around Antarctica and some Sub-Antarctic Islands.

They prefer to live on soft bottoms and range of least between 24 and 950 m in depth. They are superficially similar to the unrelated, extinct trilobites (hence the specific name trilobitoides for the first described species) and reach up to about 8 cm in length.
