Common name - Greek Shield Isopod
Scientific name - Porcellio werneri
The listing is for 1x animal, of a RARE, large species of isopod (rolypoly/pillbug/woodlice) that is infamous for its wide, shield-like body shape.
These are CAPTIVE BRED, with this stock originating from Greece. When a group is purchased, the isopods sent will be an assorted mixture of ages and sizes, to ensure a good start to a breeding colony.
Like other giant Porcellio species, this species prefers a less moist environment compared to other isopods, with plenty of airflow as well.
The isopods feed on a variety of forest materials such as decaying wood and leaf litter. Additional supplements such as calcium (limestone/cuttlefish bone) and fish food should be offered as part of their balanced diet.
