مستخلص: The aim of this study was to test the effect of two tagging product on the locomotor rhythm parameters of individuals of the desert isopod Hemilepistus reaumurii collected from the marginal zone of a salt lake in Bchachma (Middle of Tunisia) in laboratory-controlled conditions. Results showed that locomotor activity of control individuals (CI) and individuals tagged with oil painting (IOP) was very similar highlighting sensitivity to dawn and dusk, respectively. Further, results showed that CI locomotor rhythm was statistically more stable than that of IOP and individual tagged with nail polish (INP). Additionally, individuals tagged with nail polish (INP) were more active than CI and IOP. This could highlight the effect of this last marking product on the locomotor rhythm parameters of H. reaumurii. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
