Platyarthrus aiasensis isopods for sale. Also known as the Ridged Ant Woodlouse. This is a very rare species of isopod from the Mediterranean that is completely blind, it does not have eyes. It is often found living communally with ants. This unique species eats insect frass (bug poop!) and makes great partners with roaches and other invertebrates.
