Discover the enchanting Armadillidium nasatum "Quartz" isopods, a remarkable find from Isopod Canada. Their captivating allure is heightened by a unique sexual polymorphism in males. As these males mature, splendid gray spots gradually emerge along their back, growing darker and more pronounced with age. In contrast, females and juveniles exhibit a charming white hue.

Moreover, the "Quartz" morph occasionally surprises with the intriguing "piebald" pattern, showcasing varying intensities of this captivating trait. While isolating this specific "piebald" characteristic remains a challenge, its occasional appearance adds an element of mystery to these remarkable isopods.

Here's the kicker: I wholeheartedly recommend these isopods! Their engaging behavior and striking appearance make them a must-have for any collector. At Isopod Canada, we take immense pride in offering you this exceptional species, allowing you to experience the wonder of the Armadillidium nasatum "Quartz" right within your own habitat.
