A (upper map). In 12 MEOW biogeographic realms for 2851 species with minimum depths of <800 m. The few species known to occur in >1 realm are assigned only once on the basis of type locality.
B (lower map). In 14 GOODS lower bathyal provinces for 202 species with minimum depths >800 m. More detailed data for families are given in Tables 2 and 3. No species are known to occur in >1 province. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0043529.g002

This diagram image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}. It is recommended to name the SVG file “Numbers of marine Isopoda (except Asellota and crustacean symbionts) in biogeographic regions.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
