    Punta Cana is a surface isopod that thrives in temperate environments with a moisture gradient. Keep one side moist to maintain humidity. Vulgare can not tolerate excessive moisture. Good ventilation is essential.

    Not sexually dimorphic.

    AKA "Pill Bug," thus it rolls into a ball to retain moisture when the habitat is too dry, as well as a defensive posture.
