Description:
Porcellio coros “Albino” is an extremely rare and highly sought-after color morph of Porcellio coros, known for its pale, almost white to creamy translucent appearance. The reduced pigmentation gives it a striking “albino-like” look, making it one of the most visually unique forms of this species in the hobby.
This species grows to a medium size and requires stable, carefully controlled conditions. It prefers moderate to higher humidity with good airflow and a well-established bioactive setup to maintain long-term health. Despite its hardy Porcellio background, the albino form is more sensitive and requires consistent conditions to thrive.
Once established, it becomes a flagship collector morph, valued for its extreme rarity, clean pale coloration, and strong high-end appeal among European Porcellio enthusiasts.
