This platform provides information and knowledge about the Flanders Hydraulics' areas of expertise in 'hydraulics and sediment', 'harbours and waterways', 'hydraulic structures', 'water management' and 'coastal protection' - ranging from Flanders Hydraulics' employees with their expertise, the curriculum of this institution, to publications, projects, data (in the long term) and events in which Flanders Hydraulics is involved.
This contribution presents the first recorded occurrence of the intertidal isopod Jaera praehirsuta on the Belgian coast. The population occurred extensively under stones in the lower half of the intertidal zone. This latter observation classifies them as belonging to the paucahirsuta form of SOLIGNAC (1967). As it is foreseen that other representatives of the Jaera albifrons-group also occur in Belgium, a key to the genus is provided.
