So I did a bit of hunting in a small undisturbed area by my house and turned up a variety of amazing specimens including a gorgeous rove beetle (I adore rove beetles ). I think it is Astrapaeus ulmim, but I'm an amateur when it comes to classification. Anybody agree or disagree? Any input...

I was excited to see this post so I went and caught some to show. Thanks Lucanus! A single Porcellio sp. I found A. vulgare 1 of possibly 2 Philoscia sp. (I think?) that I had found a few days ago. My other is way small and may even be a Porcellio (it's not pictured), but this...

Digging in my garden for some isopods, or maybe centipedes, or whatever else I can find (came across some cute rove beetles but I digress), and I found 2 Storeria dekayi under an old bird bath. They were really docile, I'm guessing because it was a chilly morning, and let me pick them up and...

Anybody got anything of interest for sale? I'd offer a trade if I had the product but all of my colonies are in their early stages.

My 2 females are sisters and often hang in the canopy or in the pool (as in this photo) together. One of them, you can see, is a little camera shy.

Some carrion beetles and their young eating a dead frog. My girlfriend and I came across them hiking the Appalachian, and set up alongside them for a while to watch them feed. They were voracious and quite aware of our presence; we were "chased off" many times by a very persistent adult which...

Can't seem to do any editing to my profile except for changing the picture (but my photo file sizes are too big to use)...but yea, want to add likes etc. etc....I'm new here so maybe there's a waiting period?

I need an opinion or two... Is it wrong to import a species into the U.S. to breed rather than sticking with domestic? I mean, I don't want to do anything that would impact our ecosystem, but man what an exciting thought when you see all the different species being offered out there (like in...

Hello everyone. I'm a 32 year old in NJ, currently keeping Asbolus and Passalus Beetles, as well as various Isopods (I loooove isopods!), centipedes, millipedes, fish, assassin bugs, and a few snakes. I have a few breeding projects in the works (my pythons), but I really have my heart set on...
