Armadillidium flavoscutatum ‘red head’

Armadillidium flavoscutatum (Red Head Isopod) — “Red Head” Morph

Red Heads are hard to miss — a bold reddish-orange head that pops against their muted grey or brown bodies. This rare morph adds instant visual interest to a collection or display tank. They’re hardy, moderately active, and thrive in enclosures with good airflow, moderate humidity, and a clear moisture gradient. A great pick for collectors looking for something a little different without being overly demanding to keep.

Care at a Glance:

• Humidity: Moderate with a defined dry-to-moist gradient
• Diet: Leaf litter, decaying wood, veggie scraps, supplemental protein
