Species profile

Cubaris sp "Honeymoon Tiger"

Native to Thailand, Cubaris sp “Honeymoon Tiger” is a striking tropical isopod known for its bold tiger-like banding and rich golden-yellow colouration. Dark chocolate to near-black stripes run across the body, contrasting sharply with warmer yellow and amber tones to create one of the most distinctive patterns seen among Southeast Asian isopods.

Honeymoon Tiger’s scientific identity remains uncertain: depending on the breeder, you may see the same isopod labelled Cubaris sp. or Nesodillo sp., as it has yet to receive a universally accepted classification
