Isopod identification?

[DontFearSpiders]

2 months late, but consider Porcellionides sexfasciatus. Could also be a native, in which case ID is near impossible with these images.

I wonder if anyone on earth xna really identify isopods. Such a wide and varied group with nearly no scientifc attention. Like mold species "it kinda looks like -ABC-"

I wouldn't be shocked if half the hobby's photos online are not actually properly confirmed, but more a superficial likeness. even on the top level, there is little data and taxonomic studies of the group. the amount of global spread and introduction is also greatly underdiscussed, be it from forestry products, food, agriculture, horticulture or just packing material.

Probably better to label it's name as a collection location and don't export it.
