Have a little army of zebra isopods and they do act like piranhas but mostly for potatoes and zucchini. Fun seeing them swarm tho, and they do eat the occasional dead insect.

When I was a kid, I walked on the beach as the waves splashed at my feet and I had this sharp pain on my ankle. I looked down and saw something like one of those small conch snail stuck on me. I pulled it off and was curious on what was it. 20 years later, the question still bothered me until now. I'm now grateful to know what these little things are.

I can practically swear I saw these on Florida's Atlantic Ocean side between tides. There was a huge amount in one spot on the beach,an area roughly 3'×3' with 3-4 other exceptionally smaller spots following where the surf hit. I noticed these because I had never seen these before and found it unusual. Is there a relative species on the Atlantic coast?

I sat on the beach in Thailand once, I was sitting on the towel and my feets were on the sand, sand was not wet, but moist, I felt lil sharp sting to my foot, instnctively I slapped the place with my hand and I felt some small creature was on my foot, felt down exactly when I looked down to my foot and in same moment dissapeared in the sand and left a lil hole behind (I thought I saw something for quorter of sec, as lil black worm, but could be my imagination as well). Suddenly I saw thousands of lil holes all around me covering whole beach. I put on my flip flops really quick, grabbed my towel and got lost from there. I never saw the lil creature, asked around what could it be, thought it was type of worm? Till today I ve never found out what it was, maybe it was this thing? Anybody have any idea? The vaves were not coming over the beach at that time.

They just itch, and make the whole experience less pleasant. They're not always at the beach though, they seem to come in waves. If it's a bad day for them, just keep away, unless you don't mind the itching.

Where I live we have these things called sand fleas which are basically just clawless crabs (make great bait) but never knew the pacific has actual flesh eating things, isn’t that nice

Fun Fact: Pill bugs and shrimp are both crustaceans, clams and snails are mollusks, and all of the mentioned creatures eat rotting material. . You are already eating the bugs.

I always wondered what those scribbles were, and I attributed any cuts/sores on my feet to barnacles, which are pretty common

@@KQEDDeepLook I love all you guys; but Laura, Seth, and Mark are all huge inspirations for me as an upcoming musician, foley artist, videographer, and (hobbyist) entomologist! Thanks for being awesome and showing the world how cool arthropods are! Not to be too gloomy, but will there be any chance that you guys will talk about the death by a thousand cuts that is currently happening to insects? Their silent extinction is really sad to me. :(

I am from Taiwan, and I've never encountered these things over my entire life. Which got me curious, so I checked on various sources, and I don't think there's any formal report of people encountering these things on our beaches either. Do you mind sharing the source on that?

Hi @mikechiu9767, This review paper mentions that Excirolana chiltoni have been reported in Taiwan: zookeys.pensoft.net/article/100390/element/2/17// This paper from 2001 also mentions them: chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/research.nhm.org/pdfs/4970/4970.pdf It's possible that they aren't very abundant in Taiwan and that's why other sources, like this one, don't show them there: www.gbif.org/zh-tw/species/2212911

I encountered small isopods at the Black Sea. Stand at the swash zone and let your feet sink into the sand, then lift them up and you can see dozens of those little guys scurrying away to hide back in the sand. The biting ones don't live there, fortunately.
