As their name implies, this species is capable of curling up into balls like Armadillidium. They have an affinity towards rotten wood and can really benefit from having pieces of it in their culture for them to gather and feed on. They are a gentle and underrated species for humid terrariums (they don't roam onto dry ground much). This locality was collected by Springtails US in Oglesby, Illinois.

The bulk of the wild individuals that started this culture were collected from under fallen chunks of limestone.
