That's why I plan on culturing various isopods in my area Well do keep us posted, I would like to see all the cool natives in your area! And judging by the rich biodiversity near you, I would assume there are a few more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salmonsaladsandwich Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Hmm, I think I've seen those but dismissed them as nonnative Trichoniscus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cariblatta lutea Posted March 3, 2016 Author Share Posted March 3, 2016 Cool! Hope they do well for you!

And judging by the rich biodiversity near you, I would assume there are a few more. Apparently there's at least 3 native species of isopods in my state (probably more) so I'm hoping to get them all I'll post what I find Hmm, I think I've seen those but dismissed them as nonnative Trichoniscus. They seem to be widespread in southeastern US so you may well have seen them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
