Description

The Armadillidium sp. ‘Corfu’ is a beautiful locality isopod collected from the Greek island of Corfu, admired for its natural earthy colouration and classic Armadillidium shape. Its subtle blend of greys and browns, often accented with lighter edging, makes it an excellent choice for naturalistic displays and collectors who appreciate locality forms.

This species thrives in a well-ventilated enclosure with a deep, calcium-rich substrate, plenty of decaying hardwood, leaf litter, and areas of moss to maintain a suitable humidity gradient. Like many Mediterranean Armadillidium , they appreciate having both damp and drier areas within the enclosure, allowing them to regulate their own moisture levels. A varied diet of leaf litter, rotting wood, cuttlebone, and occasional protein supplements will help maintain healthy, active colonies.

Armadillidium sp. ‘Corfu’ breeds steadily under the correct conditions and is known for its hardy nature and straightforward care requirements. Suitable for both beginners and experienced keepers, this attractive locality species is a fantastic addition to any isopod collection, especially for those looking to explore the diversity of Mediterranean Armadillidium.
