Discovered in 2018 and named in 2020, this species blends seamlessly into its environment with intricate camouflage and textured bodies.

Their unique appearance and gentle nature make them a standout choice for exotic pet enthusiasts and educational displays alike.

Honestly couldn’t recommend this seller anymore. This isn’t the only animal I’ve bought off him and I’ve had nothing booked success so far the animals were delivered healthy and promptly. Any advice I needed was answered thoroughly. I really feel the seller is in it for the passion of the hobby. I definitely will be buying from this seller again and I recommend to anyone looking to get into invertebrates
Beautifully packaged in sustainable packaging. They arrived in perfect condition and are beautiful.
Really robust packaging. Great insects. Would recommend.
