50ct Willowsia neonigromaculata

A great arid cleanup crew species and perhaps the most drought tolerant of any species I carry. They prefer dry environments with ample ventilation (though still require access to a moist area). I keep two localities, an Illinois and a Michigan. If you prefer a specific locality or to know which one you receive, please say so in the order comments at checkout.
