Description

Armadillidium gestroi is a larger European pillbug species, notable for its robust body shape and attractive natural colouration. Typically grey-brown with subtle markings, this species is admired for its size and presence compared to other Armadillidium.

They are hardy and adaptable, thriving in setups with a moisture gradient, good ventilation, and a steady supply of leaf litter and decaying wood. Their ability to roll into a ball adds to their charm, making them a fascinating display species as well as a reliable breeder.

Thanks to their hardiness and steady reproduction rate, Armadillidium gestroi is a great choice for both beginners starting their first colonies and experienced keepers looking to broaden their collection of Mediterranean isopods.
