Description:   The uptake and accumulation of magnesium and manganese by Porcellio spinicornis and their correlation to dietary levels of the metals were discussed.  High levels of magnesium and manganese were proved to have an adverse effect upon the oxygen consumption and ammonia excretion rates of porcellio.  Food consumption, excretion, weight gain, and faecal and tissue metal concentrations for each metal were examined.
