   🚨 ARTHROPOD OF THE DAY 🚨
   
   A new species of isopod, Stenasellus Dollfus was found and published in a study November 15th, 2024. It's been given the name Stenasellus Stygopersicus which is earned from the place it calls home, a combination of “stygo,” from the ancient Greek “stýx,” and “persicus” in reference to Persia.
   
   Found in cave water rich with hydrogen sylfide, the isopods' “coral pink” color was in sharp contrast with the darkness of the cave and the brown and gray rocks.
   
   Males of the species are about half an inch long, with a coral-colored body and “trapezoidal” head. Females are almost two times the size of males.
