A curated gallery of isopods I’ve kept over the years, featuring collector favourites, rare and unusual species, and several that were first introduced to the UK at the time.
Isopods belong to the order Isopoda, which encompasses a diverse range of species. However, it’s worth noting that taxonomy and classification of isopods is very much in its infancy. Common families of isopod include Ardentiella, Armadillidium, Cubaris, Filipinodillo, Porcellio, Troglodillo and many more — each beautiful in their own right. Beyond this, the world of isopods also includes an exciting array of morphs, offering even more variety in colour and pattern. Due to this huge diversity, there is certainly an isopod species for everyone.
