Cubaris sp "Electric Blue"

Small, fast-moving and remarkably eye-catching, Cubaris sp “Electric Blue” is an undescribed Chinese isopod with colouration that changes dramatically under different lighting. The centre of the body appears dark slate-grey to blue, gradually becoming paler towards the outer edges, while subtle yellow markings run along the spine like flashes of lightning. Combined with its speed and shifting metallic-blue tones, these markings make “Electric Blue” a particularly fitting hobby name. Its formal taxonomic identity remains unresolved, and it is variously traded as Cubaris, Spherillo, Nesodillo or more generally as an unidentified member of the family Armadillidae.
